The Institute for Youth Ministry<br />
The <strong>Princeton</strong> <strong>Theological</strong> <strong>Seminary</strong> Institute for Youth Ministry (IYM) provides<br />
theological education for people in ministry with youth. Through the IYM, <strong>Princeton</strong><br />
<strong>Seminary</strong> enhances and sustains a broader effort toward theologically rigorous<br />
approaches to youth ministry by initiating research and integrating it with practice,<br />
training pastors and leaders, and connecting youth ministry with traditional theological<br />
disciplines. Committed to integrating theory and practice, the IYM carries<br />
out its mission through:<br />
Research<br />
The Institute for Youth Ministry initiates original research in areas of youth, church,<br />
and culture and integrates research with the ongoing practice of youth ministry.<br />
The <strong>Princeton</strong> Lectures on Youth, Church, and Culture sponsored and published<br />
annually, foster original scholarship pertaining to youth and the contemporary<br />
church. The IYM’s current research project, funded by Lilly Endowment, Inc. is<br />
“The Connections Project: Strengthening Youth Ministries through Mentoring and<br />
Vocational Friendships.”<br />
Leadership Development<br />
The Institute for Youth Ministry provides opportunities for non-degree theological<br />
education and practical training in youth ministry. Its leadership development<br />
opportunities include the Youth, Church, and Culture Podcast (available on iTunes),<br />
the Certificate in Youth and Theology, and The <strong>Princeton</strong> Forums on Youth Ministry.<br />
In cooperation with faculty, the forum is also offered for credit. <strong>PTS</strong> students are<br />
welcome to attend the forums and other conferences on a not-for-credit basis.<br />
Degree Programs<br />
<strong>Princeton</strong> <strong>Theological</strong> <strong>Seminary</strong> offers two master’s-level degree programs to<br />
students wishing to focus part or all of their academic studies on youth ministry.<br />
The Master of Arts program and the Master of Divinity/Master of Arts dual-degree<br />
program include courses in Bible, theology, church history, and practical theology,<br />
as well as several courses on the church’s ministry with youth. In addition, a Doctor<br />
of Philosophy program in practical theology is available and may emphasize youth<br />
ministry. The Institute for Youth Ministry collaborates with faculty and students<br />
to enrich and support the degree programs. For more information on these<br />
