By Year: 2009, 2008, 2007, 2006, 2005, 2004, 2003, 2002
By Area: Biblical Studies & Early Christianity, Historical Studies, Liturgical Studies, Religion & Society, Theological & Philosophical Studies
The Graduate Division of Religion was formed in 2004 out of five preexisiting graduate programs in religion in Drew's Caspersen School of Graduate Studies, and in 2006 governance of the GDR transferred from the Caspersen School to Drew's Theological School. A word of clarification is therefore in order with regard to the year-by-year list of religion graduates that follows. Most of these Ph.D. graduates matriculated, not in the Theological School, but in the Caspersen School of Graduate Studies, and most of them graduated from the Caspersen School as well.
