Harvard Divinity School All that you expect. More than you imagine.
Harvard Divinity School is a global leader in advancing understanding of religion and its significance in today’s complex world. In some ways, HDS is just what you might expect—a world-class divinity school that prepares leaders for ministry and academia. But learning here explores not one religion, and not just Christianity, but the world’s religions, as well as the profound influence of religion throughout the world. Our graduates become ministers in congregations, but they also become teachers, religious scholars, lawyers, nonprofit leaders, advocates for social justice, and pursue many other paths, in the U.S. and around the globe. And all of this takes place at Harvard, which offers resources for learning you’ll find nowhere else.
