What Can I Do With A Degree In Ministry?

The Bible And Ministry Degree At KCU Offers Four Key Strengths:
Internship
All Bible and Ministry students must complete a 12-credit-hour, 6-8 month internship. Our students have the opportunity to put their coursework into action before they graduate in an environment designed to nurture and challenge them. We believe there is simply no substitute for experience.
Portfolio
We intentionally connect our work in our courses to real-world, practical ministry competence. That means that students graduate with a resource that shows that they are able to put their studies into actual ministry practice.
Academic Excellence
Our faculty are well-prepared and well-qualified. What this means is that they are not just experts in Scripture but experts in putting their studies to work in the real world.
Pastoral Investment
Our faculty have spent time (and currently spend time) doing ministry. We employ faculty who see what they do at KCU as investing in the Kingdom of God. That means you not only get instructors, but also mentors and pastors who see themselves as partners with you in your calling. Our goal that the students receive ongoing mentoring designed to shape them for ministry both inside and outside the classroom.
Well Prepared
“Thank you so much, Dr. Brickey! I was well prepared, both educationally and most importantly, spiritually. I will forever remember this experience. I pray I can continue to make Yancey School of Nursing proud as I practice my career.”
