Purpose and Objectives

The purpose of the Psychology program is to develop students to research and address the mental, emotional,

relational, and spiritual growth needs of people in clinical, academic, and church/mission settings.

In addition to the mission statement, general objectives, and requirements of the college, the objectives of the

Psychology program are as follows:

Enable students to evaluate psychological paradigms by the authority of Scripture, helping them to

precisely articulate a biblically consistent and empirically powerful model of human psychology

Enable students to understand the scientific foundations of empirical research and the biological

foundations of psychological experience

Help students to foster the spiritual, mental, emotional, and relational growth of themselves and others

through practical exposure and training in outside agency work. Prior instruction in mental health

diagnosis and treatment is included, as is instruction in professional ethics and prohibiting (among other

things) “dual role” relationships that interfere with therapeutic progress.

See Appendix A for graduation requirements.
