Post-Doctoral Degree

Post-Doctorate Degree Program

An opportunity for ministry and academic growth — for advanced students who have already earned a doctoral degree.

About This Program

The Post-Doctorate Degree Program is designed for the advanced student who has already earned a Ph.D., Th.D., or D.Min. degree. The second doctorate provides an opportunity to study in a different field of research without having to repeat all previously completed coursework.

The student must select a research theme he or she is passionate about. The hope of Fellowship Theological Seminary is that this process will further equip the student in fulfilling his or her ministry calling and service to Jesus Christ.

Courses/Textbooks may not be utilized for more than one degree program. A transcript of your previous doctorate must be submitted to Admissions at Fellowship Theological Seminary, 7 Oak Avenue, West Orange, NJ 07052.

The dissertation theme must be submitted to the committee for approval before beginning the program. Once approved, the doctoral candidate may commence their studies.
