Yale Divinity School

Yale Divinity School (YDS) is one of twelve professional schools within Yale University. YDS confers the graduate degrees Masters of Divinity, Masters of Arts and Religion, and Masters of Sacred Theology. YDS fulfills a critical role preparing leaders for service in church and world at a time of dramatic shifts in the theological landscape. The student body represents a wide range of cultures, ethnicities and faith communities from around the world, taught by faculty eager to accept the educational challenges of an increasingly globalized environment. Outside the classroom, but equally important to the YDS experience, are the daily chapel services reflecting the variety of worship traditions that have evolved over the millennia.
