Master of Divinity (M.Div.) Dual-Degree Programs
The M.Div. degree may be pursued in collaboration with other master's degrees offered within Loyola University Chicago's professional schools.

Students can complete the following programs in four years of full-time study:
The M.Div./M.A. in Pastoral Counseling

The M.Div./M.S.N.
This dual-degree program recognizes the historic role which the church and nursing have played as agents of health and wholeness. Graduates of this program act as agents of change, and as leaders in shaping structures and systems that will facilitate the integration of faith and health in communities.
The M.Div./M.S.W.
This dual-degree program provides the student with a comprehensive background in ministerial leadership and the competencies to become a licensed social worker.
