- A seminary is a specialized university-like institution for the purpose of instructing students (seminarians) in theology, often in order to prepare them to become members of the clergy. This usually, though not always, applies to Christian and Jewish education. These institutions may also be known as theological colleges, particularly in the United Kingdom and South Africa. Where they are part of another tertiary education institution they are typically called a school of theology or divinity school. They usually offer professional graduate degrees (i.e. M.Div., Th.M., D.Min., etc.).

This usually, though not always, applies to Christian and Jewish education. These institutions may also be known as theological colleges, particularly in the United Kingdom and South Africa. Where they are part of another tertiary education institution they are typically called a school of theology or divinity school. They usually offer professional graduate degrees (i.e. M.Div., Th.M., D.Min., etc.). Bible colleges tend to provide a similar education, often at the undergraduate level and either evangelical or fundamentalist in orientation. Such institutions may also focus more on lay education. Roman Catholic seminaries usually have their degrees conferred by a Pontifical university. Although the primary purpose of a seminary is to prepare and equip candidates for religious service in the church or synagogue—congregation leadership—many people not intending to become such leaders may study in seminaries. Qualifications may be obtained majoring in pastoral work and similar fields, as well as in the more academic disciplines. Many monks and nuns attend a seminary to enhance their qualifications. It is also quite common for lay people to study in a seminary to enhance their spiritual life, to explore academic interests, or to prepare for non-ordained ministries (for example, choir directors or Sunday school teachers). Many Christian denominations cooperate in providing theological education for students preparing for ordination and a number of consortia or other cooperative arrangements have been established, for example in Australia there are the Melbourne and Adelaide Colleges of Divinity and the Australian College of Theology comprising a number of seminaries working together.
