field education student chaplain

Welcome! 

  • Field Education at Pittsburgh Theological Seminary lies at the confluence of students, seminary, and ministry sites. It is where students develop ministry skills, practice theological reflection, discern their call, and are mentored into ministry. 
  • It is where congregations and other organizations come alongside a seminarian with welcome, feedback, support, discernment, and an invitation into mutual ministry. 
  • It is where faculty and staff bring theological traditions and theories to bear upon the practices of ministry for the sake of the church and the world.
Hear from two PTS students about their Field Education placement experiences.
Dr. Cynthia Wallace shares more about her experience as a Field Ed site supervisor.
