English M.Div.

Tuition is 5,500 USD per year.

English M.Div. at Chongshin University in Dongjak-gu, South Korea is a non-degree program delivered entirely in English, structured across six semesters of sixteen weeks each, with a new intake every March and a yearly tuition figure of 5500 USD. The Master of Divinity is the standard professional degree pathway for students preparing for ordained ministry, pastoral leadership, or advanced theological scholarship within the Christian tradition, and Chongshin University is a seminary-affiliated institution, so its version of the program is built around a Presbyterian and Reformed theological framework. Coursework in a program of this kind typically spans biblical studies in both the Old and New Testaments, systematic and historical theology, and the original biblical languages, alongside practical ministry training such as preaching, pastoral counseling, and church administration. Students generally study the history of Christian doctrine and denominational tradition relevant to the seminary hosting the program, as well as how theological principles apply to contemporary pastoral situations, including counseling, conflict, and community leadership. Field education or supervised ministry placements are common in Master of Divinity programs, giving students hands-on pastoral experience alongside classroom instruction before they take on independent ministry roles. Because the program is delivered in English at a Korean seminary, it also serves international and English-speaking students seeking theological training grounded in a Korean Presbyterian institutional context. Graduates typically pursue ordination, pastoral ministry, chaplaincy, or further graduate theological study such as a doctoral program, depending on the ministry path they intend to follow.
