BACHELOR OF THEOLOGY

The Bachelor of Theology (ThB) Degree Program is a unique professional program for undergraduate training. The ThB will equip ministers and other Christian workers with the foundational skills and Biblical knowledge needed in effective Christian service in the various areas of their calling. The program is a balanced college level degree which can be the basis for future studies in a graduate degree program.

The specialty of this program is in the designed inclusion of the basics of the Biblical studies and languages, as well as broad aspects of theology, ministry and the fundamental teachings of the Christian faith with a major focus in theology. The ThB degree program requires completion of a core of foundational Biblical theological studies. Additionally mandatory studies in the theology major, education, evangelism, missions, computers and other electives act to achieve a well-rounded and practical skill level in ministry. The ThB, as in all undergraduate and masters level programs requires the completion of PCM designated courses.

The ThB Degree Program may also be completed in the traditional classroom setting on the campus of CTU in Jacksonville, Florida. CTU’s latest innovation in education is our online e-couses.
