The Doctor of Faith-Based Professional Ministry of Counseling (M-DPC) is a terminal professional degree designed to equip leaders with the advanced theoretical, ethical, and practical competencies necessary for high-level organizational and community service. The curriculum emphasizes the integration of professional counseling principles with servant leadership, organizational stewardship, and ethical decision-making within diverse community contexts. Students engage in rigorous academic inquiry to address complex interpersonal and systemic challenges, fostering a scholarly environment that bridges theoretical research with compassionate, faith-informed practice.

The Doctor of Education in Faith-Based Professional Ministry of Counseling is an applied professional doctorate emphasizing advanced faith-based professional ministry of counseling knowledge, organizational leadership, ethical stewardship, program development, community-care systems, higher-education instruction, and evidence-informed professional practice.

Students may receive up to 40 semester credit hours of approved graduate or doctoral transfer credit. Accepted transfer credits are applied toward the 120-credit graduation requirement and may reduce the number of courses and the amount of time required to complete the degree. A student receiving the maximum transfer-credit award must complete at least 80 semester credit hours through the University.

The applied doctoral project must address a documented faith-based professional ministry of counseling-support, educational, organizational, or community-care need. The project must include scholarly research, an implementation model, measurable outcomes, ethical safeguards, an evaluation plan, and a successful oral defense.

DOCTORAL TRANSFER-CREDIT POLICY: The Doctor of Education and Doctor of Philosophy programs each require 120 semester credit hours. Students may transfer up to 40 semester credit hours of eligible graduate or doctoral coursework toward either degree. Transfer credit is not automatically awarded. Each request is evaluated individually according to: The academic level of the previous coursework; The relevance of the coursework to the doctoral curriculum; Course content and learning outcomes; Credit-hour equivalency; Grades earned; The age of the coursework; Official institutional documentation; The University's residency and transfer-credit policies. Accepted transfer credit may reduce the number of courses and the amount of time required to complete the degree. Students awarded the maximum 40 transfer credits will have 80 semester credit hours remaining in the 120-credit doctoral program. Comprehensive examinations, doctoral candidacy, doctoral residency, the applied doctoral project, dissertation research, and the final oral defense must ordinarily be completed through the University. These requirements may not be satisfied through transfer credit unless expressly permitted under a published University policy.

Candidates must submit official transcripts, a statement of purpose outlining professional goals and spiritual formation, three letters of professional recommendation, and a writing sample demonstrating academic proficiency. Applicants may be required to complete a personal interview to assess readiness for advanced doctoral inquiry and alignment with the university’s mission. Dissertation Requirement The Dissertation represents the culminating scholarly experience, requiring students to conduct original research that addresses a significant problem or opportunity within the landscape of professional ministry or nonprofit community service. Students will demonstrate their capacity for independent academic inquiry by identifying a research question, conducting a rigorous literature review, applying appropriate research methodologies, and interpreting findings to offer actionable insights. This project serves as a hallmark of intellectual maturity, requiring deep reflection on how academic scholarship intersects with ethical practice and servant leadership. Integration of a Christian worldview is substantive throughout the dissertation process, as students are required to interpret their research findings through the lens of biblical stewardship and ethical responsibility. The final deliverable must articulate how the research outcomes contribute to the flourishing of individuals or communities, reflecting the student's character development and professional commitment to the common good.
