The Ecumenical Doctor of Ministry program is offered jointly by Catholic Theological Union, the Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago, and McCormick Theological Seminary. The D.Min. is an advanced professional degree for lay and ordained ministers.

This unique program for the experienced minister integrates advanced theological study with the development of pastoral skills, thereby enhancing the practice of ministry. To accomplish this, the D.Min. program balances acquisition of knowledge with development of skills through peer, supervised, and self-directed learning experiences, along with classroom instruction. Students may focus their studies in one of these areas of concentration: intercultural ministries, educating for witness, liturgical studies, spirituality, or Hispanic Theology and Ministry.
