Overview:

In a day when varying worldviews bombard you at every turn, students must have a strong biblical foundation in order to engage the culture with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The College at Southwestern, which is the undergraduate program of Southwestern Seminary, prepares its students to fulfill God’s call on their life by enhancing a passion for Christ, Scripture and reaching the lost. Students develop a Christian worldview and experience true ownership with their faith.

With each of its bachelor degrees, students will take a 60-hour core in history, philosophy, social science, literature and theology. They also benefit from small group breakout sessions after lecture for discussion with classmates. Before graduation, students will visit some of the most demanding international locations to share the Gospel: perhaps on the streets of Mumbai, India; or in an African village; or in a dusty town in Mexico.
