McMaster Divinity College offers an active and growing summer program. The Summer at MacDiv program is designed to offer a further range of options both for traditional students and for those who wish to explore various areas of theological education. Those who desire to register for Summer at MacDiv should have their applications and registrations completed by April 9, 2010.
After this date, please email or call to find out the correct procedure.
Those who should consider taking courses during the summer sessions include full time degree students who wish to either be able to take a reduced course load during the academic year or get ahead in their program of study; part time students who wish to keep accumulating courses toward their particular degree or diploma program; occasional students who wish to try a seminary course in a more intensive environment, either for personal enrichment or to determine whether seminary study is for them; and pastors and other church workers who wish to participate in continuing education. We strongly encourage pastors and others involved in Christian ministry to consider our Summer at MacDiv offerings as a regular part of their in-service training.
A number of different types of courses are offered during the summer sessions within the curricular areas of Ministry Studies, Biblical Studies, Theological Studies, and Christian History. Some of these courses are the kinds of courses that are normally offered during the regular academic year. Most courses that are offered, however, draw upon the availability of a number of visiting faculty, who come specifically to McMaster Divinity College to offer courses in their areas of specialty. As a result, the summer sessions offer many courses that would not normally be available during the regular academic year, and may not be available again. Students are encouraged to register for these courses when they see them being offered. The courses offered during the summer session carry the regular unit credits and are applicable to McMaster Divinity College degree programs subject to the requirements of the particular degree.
