The Master of Arts in Chaplaincy and Ministry Care degree program is designed to prepare students to serve as chaplains in the military, hospitals, corporate environments, and other care-related ministry settings.


If you care deeply about people and seek to provide a combination of pastoral care, emotional and spiritual care, and practical life counseling to people outside of the church, becoming a chaplain is a great way to serve those without regular access to ministers.

The Curriculum

The 3-year MACP program includes DTS common core of Bible and theology courses along with practical training in preaching, counseling, pastoral care, and leadership.
