PRINCETON THEOLOGICAL
SEMINARY
Princeton Theological Seminary prepares women and men to
serve Jesus Christ in ministries marked by faith,
integrity, scholarship, competence, compassion, and joy,
equipping them for leadership world-wide in
congregations and the larger church, in classrooms and
the academy, and in the public arena.
A professional and
graduate institution of the Presbyterian Church
(U.S.A.), the Seminary stands within the Reformed
tradition. This tradition shapes the instruction,
research, practical training, and continuing education
provided by the Seminary, as well as the theological
scholarship it promotes. The Seminary embraces in its
life and work a rich racial and ethnic diversity and the
breadth of communions represented in the worldwide
church. It offers its theological scholarship in service
to God's renewal of the church's life and mission, and
it seeks to engage Christian faith with intellectual,
political, and economic life in pursuit of truth,
justice, compassion, and peace.
Men and women from across
the nation and around the world come to Princeton
Theological Seminary every year to pursue ministry as a
vocation. Students come from West Virginia and West
Africa, Korea and New York, Ireland and Texas; they are
black, white, Native American, Asian, Hispanic, young,
middle-aged, and older adults representing thirty
denominations -- each committed in ministry to Jesus
Christ and the church.
