Candidates must be strongly committed to the educational mission and evangelical Christian orientation of the University. Teaching will include, but not be limited to, Old and New Testament survey courses, Hebrew, and more specialized Old Testament courses.

Students majoring in department programs are prepared for graduate and professional programs in theological seminaries and in university departments of religion and philosophy.
Many students also enter church and parachurch vocations immediately upon graduation.
