Intercultural Studies, B.A.
As of November 10, 2023, this degree is in teach-out phase; it is not open to new or readmit students.
Mission
The mission of the Undergraduate Program in Intercultural Studies is to prepare students who can comprehensively understand the diverse context(s) in which they may serve, contribute to the well-being of those with whom they interact, and make disciples of Jesus Christ among all people.
Degree Program
A Bachelor of Arts degree in Intercultural Studies is offered upon completion of the University baccalaureate and major requirements. The Intercultural Studies major requires the completion of 36 program credits of which 24 must be upper-division.
Program Learning Outcomes
Upon completion of the Bachelor of Arts in Intercultural Studies, students will be able to:
- Demonstrate an integrated, multidisciplinary understanding of the complexity of elements important to members of another culture in relation to its cultural frameworks (e.g., history, values, politics, communication styles, economy, or beliefs and practices) (ULO 1).
- Address significant global problems from a biblical perspective by assessing the complexity of elements important to members of another culture, including their own and others’ cultural frameworks, while skillfully approaching differences using culturally appropriate communication and solutions (ULO 1, 3).
- Honor the critical importance of the mandate to make disciples of all nations by applying interdisciplinary knowledge, skills, and perspectives to address complex challenges at the intersection of text (Scripture) and context (culture) and evaluate the local and broader consequences of individual and collective efforts and interventions (ULO 2, 3).
- Articulate and develop an understanding of the importance of growing, and demonstrate maturity in their ongoing formation in Christ, recognizing that the foundation of a lifetime of faithful intercultural service commences internally within the heart, grounding one’s character, identity, and motivations in the person of Christ (ULO 2).
Each Program Learning Outcome (PLO) listed above references at least one of the University Learning Outcomes (ULO 1, 2, 3), which may be found in the General Information section of this catalog.
Field Internship
Every Intercultural Studies major must complete an approved field internship experience, which requires the application of skills studied in the classroom in a cross-cultural environment, usually in a foreign country. Students are encouraged to fulfill this requirement in the summer following the junior year or alternatively in the summer following their senior year. In the case of those choosing to complete their internship following their senior year, INCS 354 will be offered as a summer online class following their internship experience.
