The Field Studies and Experiential Education program at McCormick is dedicated to providing students with a broad range of challenging field-based experiential learning and ministry opportunities. Our program combines classroom-based learning with placements outside the traditional classroom to provide students with unique congregational and agency ministry experiences and opportunities to share and learn from fellow students and colleagues.
A two-semester field studies sequence is required of all M.Div. students for graduation. It is expected that all M.Div. students will satisfy the requirement in one of three ways:
- Participating in one year of ministry under supervision within an approved agency or parish setting while enrolled in MIN-404/MIN 405 Reflection in Ministry course;or
- Receiving transfer or equivalency credit from another accredited seminary or theological education program upon approval from the Dean of Masters Programs;or
- persons currently negaged in full-time Christian ministry will enroll in MIN-404/MIN-405 Reflection in Ministry and be assigned a mentoring pastor for reflection, guidance, and evaluation.
Ordinarily students register for Field Studies upon the completion of nine units. Students must have taken a workshop on Clergy Sexual Misconduct and Boundaries BEFORE beginning Field Studies programs.
