Doctor of Divinity information


An Oxford Doctor of Divinity, in Convocation habit, not full ceremonial dress

A Doctor of Divinity (DD or DDiv; Latin: Doctor Divinitatis) is the holder of an advanced academic degree in divinity.

In the United Kingdom, it is considered an advanced doctoral degree. At the University of Oxford, doctors of divinity are ranked first in "academic precedence and standing",[1] while at the University of Cambridge they rank ahead of all other doctors in the "order of seniority of graduates".[2]

In some countries, such as in the United States, the degree of doctor of divinity is usually an honorary degree and not a research or academic degree.
