Purpose and Objectives
The primary purpose of the Humanities program is to assist students as they prepare for graduate study, including seminary education, by helping them develop a Christian worldview. The objectives of the Humanities program are as follows:
- To provide exposure to basic areas of study in philosophy, literature, culture, and language
- To help students use the Bible as the source of integration for various fields of knowledge
- To prepare students for further study and education through a broader exposure to general liberal arts education
- To assist students in their ability to develop a Christian worldview in the context of our culture
- To stimulate an interest in various cultures
Get started today.
Course requirements and suggested program of study
- Graduate study: The Humanities program assists students who are looking ahead to graduate study by providing them with a broad education before they narrow the focus of their studies in graduate school.
- Seminary preparation: Some seminary programs encourage students to pursue a general liberal arts education in their undergraduate studies. The Humanities program provides a course of study that meets this demand.
- Life-long learning: Students who learn how to think critically during their college years lay a foundation for further learning and intellectual growth throughout their lives. Many job situations demand first and foremost the ability to think critically.
