Doctor of Missiology
The Doctor of Missiology program prepares knowledgeable leaders for the church and its institutions and movements whose service warrants advanced missiological knowledge and strengths in missiological field research. Modeled after the Ed.D. degree, the D.Miss. program prepares people for informed mission practice, for advanced field leadership and for teaching in the academy. This program is only offered on our Wilmore, Kentucky campus and is fully residential.
