Each students choose six total courses that focus on leadership, preaching, or spiritual formation. This could result in six courses in one area, two courses in each area, or a mix that includes one course in an area, two courses in another, and three courses in a third.\n\nThe program is designed to allow working ministers to earn a doctorate in leadership while maintaining their pastoral positions. The program is predominately completed online. Content courses are 12 weeks long with 11 of those weeks completed online and one-week completed in person. Research courses are 8 weeks long and are completed totally online.\n\nThe first phase of the DMIN ends when the student's course work is completed and they defend their Project Proposal. When the proposal is approved the student enters the project phase, where the student and his/her Project Advisor implement the study, gather results and draw conclusions. This second phase, where the student finishes their Project, could take as little as a year, although the student customarily has four years in which to finish."},"ceterms:subjectWebpage":"https://seminary.indwes.edu/academics/dmin","ceterms:availableOnlineAt":["https://seminary.indwes.edu/academics/dmin"],"ceterms:availabilityListing":["https://seminary.indwes.edu/academics/dmin"],"ceterms:credentialStatusType":{"@type":"ceterms:CredentialAlignmentObject","ceterms:framework":"https://credreg.net/ctdl/terms/CredentialStatus","ceterms:targetNode":"credentialStat:Active","ceterms:frameworkName":{"en-US":"Credential Status"},"ceterms:targetNodeName":{"en-US":"Active"},"ceterms:targetNodeDescription":{"en-US":"Awards of the credential are ongoing."}}}
