Program Learning Outcom
World Missions College of the Greater Washington offers the Bachelor of Theology (B.Th.), Master of Divinity (M.Div.), and Doctor of Ministry (D.Min.) to prepare our students for the ministry God has prepared for them.
BACHELOR OF THEOLOGY PROGRAM (B.Th.)
- Identify main themes, concepts, key figures, and topics of critical biblical narratives.
- Utilize various exegetical methods in studying the Bible including critical analysis, evaluation of biblical genres, and prophetic interpretation for hermeneutical basics.
- Apply acquired biblical knowledge to the spiritual formation through the involvement of local church or mission activities.
- Integrate and apply appropriate information from the biblical text to the current life context and propose relevant solutions to contemporary societal problems and comprehensive sound principles for Christian education.
Each year’s outcomes build upon the previous year, leading students from foundational knowledge to application, critical thinking, and finally, the integration and creation of the theological concepts. This progression ensures that by the end of the program, students are well equipped for both academic pursuits in theology and practical ministry roles.
MASTER OF DIVINITY PROGRAM (M. Div.)
- Research thorough knowledge of the content and themes of the Word of God
