Whether in the academy, church ministry, or positions of leadership, they are pursuing the nations for the glory of King Jesus.

The faculty at Southeastern teach in accordance with, and not contrary to, the Abstract of Principles and the Baptist Faith & Message. We also affirm the Chicago Statement on Biblical Inerrancy and the Danvers Statement on Biblical Manhood and Womanhood. Southeastern Seminary is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools and the Association of Theological Schools. Approximately 480 students study in our advanced programs. The student has options from our Ph.D. to Ed.D. to D.Min. to Th.M. Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary became a reality on May 19, 1950, by a vote of the Southern Baptist Convention meeting in Chicago, IL. To house the seminary, the Convention purchased the campus of Wake Forest College in Wake Forest, NC, recognized then and now as one of the most beautiful in the southeastern United States. SEBTS.EDU

It has been said that a call to ministry is a call to prepare. I agree. In fact, I would change the statement to, “A call to ministry is a call to keep on preparing.” Regardless of your role in God’s work, continued education can further equip you to reach an ever-changing world.

While the standard resident program remains the most favorable learning environment, several areas of study are offered in a modified residency format. These areas of study allow students to remain in their current ministry assignment while engaging in Ph.D. studies. Students who choose the modified residency format enter the program as a community of scholars and normally remain together through a series of seminars that meet twice annually.
