Doctor of Religious Studies

Purpose:

To develop in doctoral learners an interdisciplinary specialization from a specifically biblical and Christian worldview.
The Doctor of Religious Studies at Trinity Theological Seminary is designed to make an important contribution to both scholarship and research. Rather than research and writing to answer a very narrow question, the D.R.S. degree programs are aimed toward adding new contributions of original, creative, and technical work to the larger areas of academic disciplines. The Major Writing Project is aimed at using present research applications to produce material for future impact to benefit the Church in its mission.
