The Master of Arts in Social Justice (MASJ) program at Loyola's Institute of Pastoral Studies (IPS) equips future leaders to champion advocacy, service, and fairness for marginalized communities.
As social inequalities across racial, ethnic, gender, and religious divisions remain at the forefront of national discourse, the demand for skilled justice advocates grows. This curriculum provides students with spiritual and theological frameworks, contemporary challenges, proven methodologies, and hands-on resources to make meaningful impact.
The Social Justice MA program delivers outstanding training for emerging professionals seeking to enhance their work in various justice-oriented, advocacy, and community-building fields.
As part of the nationwide Jesuit educational network encompassing 27 institutions, Loyola graduates benefit from comprehensive career support including counseling, resume help, interview preparation, job fairs, and exclusive employment opportunities through our Career Services and partner Jesuit universities.
