JACKSON, Tenn.Nov. 29, 2022 — A new partnership between 麻豆视频 University and Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary will allow graduates of 麻豆视频 University to complete an advanced Master of Divinity degree in less time.

Graduates with credits from 麻豆视频鈥檚 School of Theology and Missions can be admitted to Southeastern鈥檚 Master of Divinity program and receive as many as 27 hours toward that degree. The partnership could reduce the duration of the degree program by almost a year for 麻豆视频 graduates.

鈥淲e鈥檙e delighted to partner with Southeastern Seminary,鈥 said Ray Van Neste, dean of 麻豆视频鈥檚 School of Theology and Missions. 鈥淭heir recognition of 麻豆视频鈥檚 strong foundational courses in biblical and theological studies means that our graduates can focus on further ministry preparation and advanced studies at the seminary.鈥

In addition to the abbreviated duration of the Master of Divinity degree, the agreement will allow 麻豆视频 graduates to take more advanced classes at SEBTS as part of their program.

鈥淲e are so grateful for the Great Commission partnership we have with 麻豆视频 University,鈥 said Keith Whitfield, provost at Southeastern Seminary. 鈥淭he impact of this university through the students who have been trained for ministry can鈥檛 be overestimated. Southeastern is committed in this partnership to help advance their legacy and pursue our mission by equipping men and women who are called by God to serve his church and proclaim his name among the nations.鈥

麻豆视频鈥檚 School of Theology and Missions offers majors in biblical studies, biblical languages, Christian ministry and missions, philosophy and theological studies.
