Programs of Undergraduate Study
The Program of Biblical Studies
The student participating in the Program of Biblical Studies, upon successful completion of
the chosen course of study, will be awarded a Diploma, Associate of Arts, or Bachelor of
Arts Degree.
In addition to the general objectives of Criswell College, the following outcomes apply specifically
to the courses of study in the Program of Biblical Studies. Upon the successful completion of any
program of study, the student should be able to:
- Move toward a mature Christian life by learning to apply scriptural truths to the
contemporary issues of society.
- Maintain a disciplined devotional life and an ongoing program of methodical study of
the Scriptures.
- Serve effectively in whatever sphere of Christian ministry in which one is placed
by God. Such areas of service include the pastorate, missions, evangelism, Christian
education, communications, youth ministry, worship leadership, women's ministry, or
other related Christian ministries.
NOTE: Two additional objectives apply to those students completing the course of
study leading to a B.A. Degree in Biblical Studies.
- Give evidence of familiarity with relevant areas of study outside the biblical field, thus
gaining a broader perspective and a greater understanding of the world to which the
student is called to minister.
- Progress to further graduate studies in biblical, theological, and related fields.
