Coursework is offered on the Columbia campus through an innovative delivery system of classes on Monday nights and weekend format. This enables working professionals to be fully employed while attending graduate school. For applicants with academic backgrounds in Christian Ministries, Christian Education or Religion, the degree may be completed in one intensive year.
