Program Overview

Program Description:

The Biblical and Theological Studies graduate programs at Wheaton College provide both a theological base and methodological skills for doctoral work and for use in a variety of ministries. Among these are teaching, campus ministries, missions, evangelism, writing and research, administration, church and para-church groups, lay persons in various fields, and personal enrichment. The concentrations in the Biblical and Theological Studies graduate program stress the concepts, principles, history, and methods of the theological disciplines. The program provides a scholarly, helpful, and understanding atmosphere in which students confront both traditional and contemporary interpretations and issues. It is committed to helping students formulate and articulate a biblical and global understanding of life and ministry in a setting committed to traditional biblical Christianity. The Doctor of Philosophy Program in Biblical Theology seeks to advance the cause of Christ by training men and women as evangelical Christian scholars who will serve the church worldwide as teachers, researchers, pastors, and leaders. As part of the global community of scholarship, our aim is to combine faithfulness to the teaching of Scripture with creative and critical reflection on its significance for the church and contemporary culture.
