Recognizing that the world is a religiously plural place, MDiv students of many faith communities study side by side in order to foster a greater understanding of interreligious dialogue and work.

The uniqueness of the HDS MDiv experience lies in the belief that to be a learned minister it is imperative to both study one's own religious tradition and be exposed to others. MDiv students at HDS learn to let the knowledge gained in one's setting a classroom or hospital or congregation, for example, inform and enhance the knowledge gained in another.
