Three-Year Bachelor’s Degree Program
The Bachelor’s pathway extends across three academic years. Each year concentrates substantially upon a principal theological subject serving as the student’s Major for that year.
Year 1 foundation: THEISM — Knowing GOD.
Successful completion of each academic year results in a Diploma recognizing that year’s principal subject concentration. Successful completion of all prescribed requirements leads to the Bachelor’s Degree.
Annual Diplomas
Each year of the Bachelor’s program carries its own principal theological concentration. The annual Diploma recognizes substantial study in that subject and DSTS considers it preparation to teach that subject within appropriate Christian educational and ministry settings.
Master of Theology
Students who successfully complete the Bachelor’s pathway may progress into one additional year of advanced theological study, subject to DSTS academic requirements.
Ph.D. in Theology
Following successful completion of the Master’s level, qualifying students may proceed into one additional doctoral year, subject to DSTS advanced academic requirements.
Advanced standing: DSTS may recognize documented prior theological study through appropriate academic review. No degree is awarded solely for life or ministry experience.
