The Master of Arts (Christianity and Culture) is an academic degree program designed for persons who intend to be teachers or headmasters in Christian schools, to pursue further graduate theological studies, or to become conversant on the dialogue between the Bible and the “Great Tradition” of literature. The coursework provides a solid foundation in two areas: the Bible and selected great texts of the classical Christian (Western) tradition.
A bachelor’s degree from an accredited institution or the educational equivalent is required.
The Master of Arts (Christianity and Culture) program requires completion of a total of 48 credit hours and a comprehensive examination. To graduate, a student must earn at least a grade of C- (1.7) in each course, and must have a cumulative grade point average of at east 2.5 (on a 4.0 scale).
Upon successful completion, the student is awarded the Master of Arts (Christianity and Culture) degree.
