Program details
Overview
The Bachelor of Theology is a 120-credit-hour, eight-semester undergraduate degree delivered in-person at Alberta Bible College's Calgary campus. The curriculum is divided into Bible and theology (36 credits, including Greek, Christian history, theology, and ethics), general education (36 credits), and professional studies (48 credits), the latter incorporating three sequential Field Experience courses and a six-credit Ministerial Internship that requires placement in a local church or Christian organization for eight months of the academic year. The program is described as preparing students for pastoral leadership in a local church or for graduate study at seminary, combining classroom study of Scripture and doctrine with sustained hands-on ministry experience rather than a single capstone practicum. Stated career pathways include preaching ministry, church leadership, worship ministry, education, missions, and nonprofit management, and graduates are also described as prepared to pursue graduate studies. The credential is stated to qualify for Canada and Alberta student loan funding and to be Post-Graduation Work Permit eligible for international students. Delivery is in-person rather than online, and no thesis is described; the extended internship functions as the program's central applied component.
