Return to {$returnto_text} Return to: Programs by Department

The Dual Degree Program in Discipleship in Lifespan Education, Family Life Education Concentration and Social Work allows the student to complete two degrees in 3 years, with a tuition reduction of 33% for the MSW credits. For seminary credits, the student may apply for the Discipleship in Lifespan Education MA program tuition discount.

Total Credits - 80


To facilitate this objective, the two programs will reduce the total number of required credits and will share a practicum and a limited number of elective courses. Specifically, the Social Work department will reduce the required number of credits from 56 to 46 by allowing students to take their required electives in the Seminary. Sixteen credits will be shared between the two programs.

The Discipleship in Lifespan Education, Family Life Education Concentration MA is a 48-credit degree, but it will share 16 credits with the MSW program and accept 3 MSW credits as electives, thereby reducing the Discipleship in Lifespan Education, Family Life Education Concentration MA credits to 45.

The Bible Teaching concentration prepares K-12 teachers who do not have a religion/theology background to teach Bible classes, while those with a strong religion/theology background but no educational background are given advanced standing and introduced to principles of pedagogy/andragogy.

Advanced standing is calculated at the time of admission as follows:

  • 18 or more credits of undergraduate religion or theology credit may qualify for advanced standing of up to 12 credits in appropriate areas of the course plan. Advanced standing based on less than 18 credits of prior undergraduate studies is prorated at a two-thirds ratio.
  • 8 or more credits of undergraduate education or religious education may qualify for advanced standing of up to 5 credits in appropriate areas of the course plan. Advanced standing based on less than 8 credits of prior undergraduate studies is prorated at a two-thirds ratio.
