Divinity School

Dean: Dr. Andrew H. Wakefield

The Campbell University Divinity School officially opened as the sixth school of Campbell University in January 1996. Guided by its mission statement to provide theological education that is Christ-centered, Bible-based, and Ministry-focused, the Divinity School offers the Master of Divinity, the Master of Arts in Christian Ministry, and the Doctor of Ministry degrees. Three dual degree programs are available as well, combining the Master of Divinity degree with a Master of Business Administration, a Master of Arts in Mental Health Counseling or a Juris Doctor. Certificate programs are offered in Preschool and Children’s Ministries, Christian Women in Leadership, Biblical Studies, Youth Ministry, and Church Music and Worship. Information describing these graduate theological degrees and certificate programs is available on the Divinity School website (http://divinity.campbell.edu) and in a separate bulletin.
