Houston-Galveston Extension Sites

Perkins School of Theology meets you where you are both spiritually and geographically through our flexible extension locations in Houston. 

Offering Master's Courses and the Doctor of Ministry Program

In keeping with our mission to equip persons for faithful leadership and Christian ministry in a changing church and society, our master's courses and Doctor of Ministry program provide an opportunity to engage with the cutting-edge resources at the intersection of medicine and faith. Perkins extension classes meet in Houston; one of the most socially, culturally and economically diverse cities in the United States. The program allows students to take advantage of an extraordinary range of opportunities for Christian ministry, both as clergy and laity.  

World-renowned Bridwell Library at SMU in Dallas provides a reserve shelf in the Houston Methodist Hospital Library. Students in the Houston-Galveston Extension Program can access resources through the online catalog. Research materials will be shipped to students upon request.
