BS in Biblical Studies
The Bachelor of Science in Biblical Studies degree completion program supports formal preparation for Christian ministry or advanced instruction in Biblical studies.
The program provides a diverse curriculum including textual, historical, doctrinal, and professional ministry courses.
Along with the program core courses, you may choose one of two tracks in either Ministry or Biblical Language (both may be taken if so desired).
Students interested in the Masters in Religious Education (MRE) program are required to complete the Biblical language track.
This degree program is offered at our main campus in Rochester Hills.
