Students In partnership with twelve seminaries across the country, SCUPE offers four academic programs in pastoral ministry and community development. Our educational programs, deeply rooted in the philosophy of experiential education, are designed to address the unique needs of urban ministry and developing communities. SCUPE also partners with churches and community organizations to provide students with practical experience. The Center for African American Theological Studies (CAATS) offers a three-year Master of Divinity degree with an African-centered approach to theology. The Graduate Theological Urban Studies (GTUS) program links traditional theological education with hands-on urban ministry experience through numerous courses and internships. Nurturing the Call (NTC) is a one-year pre-seminary certificate program designed for individuals interested in preparing for urban ministry. The Master of Arts in Community Development (MACD), a program designed by practitioners for practitioners, offers courses, certificates and masters degrees for individuals interested in community building, community organizing, congregational community development and housing and economic development.
