西雅图太平洋神学院提供六种不同的 文学硕士(MA)学位. Two — 基督教的研究 and 基督教圣经 — are academically oriented degrees to prepare you for teaching and research in one of the theological disciplines, and are ideal for you if you are preparing for doctoral study. 另外四个是亚裔美国人部， 商业及应用神学、基督教领袖, and 和解与跨文化研究 — are professionally oriented degrees, which prepare you for specialized ministry in various contexts.

All six of these MA degrees in 神学 support SPU’s vision to engage the culture and change the world with the transforming gospel of Jesus Christ. They are built on an integrated core curriculum consisting of courses in Scripture, 教会历史, 神学和伦理学, 精神的形成, 任务, 和部. The learning obtained from these fields of study is applied to the pressing needs of the contemporary church and the postmodern world.

每个学位都有自己的高级课程. 这些课程包括额外的圣经课程, 神学, 道德, 以及实际的事工, as well as suitable “interdisciplinary” courses offered by other SPU graduate programs, 包括商业和经济, 教育, industrial/organizational psychology and/or marriage and family therapy.

和其他五个硕士学位项目一样, the 文学硕士(商业及应用神学) consists of 78 quarter credits (i.e., 52 semester credits) of coursework — 39 credits of core courses, 39学分的专业课程. You may transfer easily from this degree program to any of the others or to the MDiv程序, if your professional objectives change during your course of study.
