The Bachelor of Theology degree is awarded by Acadia University

If you feel called to a career in ministry and desire a versatile education rooted in Christian Theology, the Bachelor of Theology program will prepare you with the skills you need to walk confidently as a Christian wherever your education takes you.

The foundation of the Bachelor of Theology (BTh) is built on Biblical Studies, Theology, and Christian History; however, you will also balance your education by taking electives in Arts and Sciences from Acadia University. There are several options within the BTh program for you to consider to help you reach your goals.

ORDINATION TRACK

If you are over 35 and considering ordination within the CBAC, the BTh (CBAC 35+ Ordination Track) will prepare you to meet the ordination requirements. This degree may also prepare you for ordination in other denominations and churches.

CRANDALL-ACADIA BTH PARTNERSHIP

The Crandall-Acadia BTh Partnership provides an avenue for you to continue to pursue career aspirations while also completing the Acadia BTh concurrently with your Crandall University degree.

2ND UNDERGRADUATE DEGREE

If you have already completed your first degree at Acadia University and are looking to build your theological education, ADC offers a unique opportunity for you to enroll in the 2nd undergraduate degree program to complete your Acadia BTh.

THEOLOGY MINOR

A minor in Theology can complement your major, broaden your perspective, and develop your skills. If you’re an Acadia University undergraduate, you are welcome to take courses in Biblical Studies, Theology, and Christian History. You may choose to take courses as electives or to complete a package of courses that can fulfill the requirement for a minor in your degree program.

STUDENT FEATURE

Chandler Bent

“Building relationships with people who have studied at ADC and hearing about their experiences gave me confidence that the Acadia BTh was the right choice for me. My confidence in that choice only became stronger after meeting the faculty. The warm welcome, friendly environment, matches of ping pong in between classes, and opportunities for more serious conversations have contributed to a great start – I’m excited for the months to come!

While I’m here, I’m hoping to get a better understanding of the religious beliefs we carry as humans, and to use that knowledge to help youth and young adults better understand their own beliefs.”
