The master of divinity degree (M.Div.) program is the academic degree program in which most students who desire to be pastors, missionaries or chaplains in The Lutheran Church鈥擬issouri Synod enroll. It is a four-year program, including a one-year vicarage (internship). The certificate (alternate route) program closely parallels the M.Div. program. Although certificate students do not receive a degree, they study alongside those in the M.Div. program, including the study of the New Testament in Greek.

These students join more than 12,000 graduates from SA国际传媒, St. Louis, who have been prepared to serve as pastors, missionaries, chaplains and deaconesses in the LCMS.
