Online Seminary Bachelor Degree Programs

ONLINE BACHELOR DEGREE PROGRAMS 

The Rogers Theological Seminary Online Bachelor of Theology Degree is a 120 credit hour undergraduate academic theology program offered by our Online Seminary in a specific "Christian Major" discipline. The program is designed to give students a deeper knowledge of Bible and Theology, while providing a focus on the student's chosen major.

Life Experience and Educational Credits may be transferable to the student's academic program, requiring less time to fulfill the credits requirement.

The Undergraduate Programme of Theology is committed to teaching students to think critically both about their faith and the world in which they live.  The Bachelor of Theology has three aims: to give students a solid foundation in theology with ecumenical dialogue and engagement; to develop Christian leaders who are able to help the church deal with the many challenges, and to help students grow in their faith.

                          BACHELOR OF THEOLOGY - B.Th.

The Bachelor of Theology is an undergraduate degree in theology. It is intended to give students a basic understanding of theology and religious sciences and provide a foundation for pastoral leadership. The Bachelor of Theology degree is not intended to prepare persons for ordained ministry. As well, it is not intended to be an undergraduate Arts degree with a major in theology.
