About Sheridan College Sheridan College is an independent community of Christian scholars in the Perth CBD engaged in specialised teaching and research. The College offers undergraduate programs in Business, Humanities and Social Sciences, and Mathematics, Physical Sciences and Life Sciences, and postgraduate programs in Business and Education.

Sheridan College is:

Sheridan College was founded by members of the Baptist denomination, and began delivering its first courses in 2015. The College has no religious requirements for admission, welcoming students from all faiths or none to complete their chosen degree in collaboration with the College faculty.

One of the College’s core commitments is to reduce financial barriers to quality higher education. Tuition fees paid by students are only applied to teaching and administration costs, not redirected to cross-subsidise research. For this reason, Sheridan College is able to deliver Bachelor and Master courses at tuition rates lower than those charged by public universities.

ww Nationally-recognised. Sheridan College is registered by the Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Agency (TEQSA). TEQSA is the federal regulatory body responsible for ensuring the quality and integrity of Australia’s university sector. ww Not-for-profit. The College is an incorporated association, and is governed by a Board of Directors.

All surplus funds remaining at the end of each financial year are reinvested into the College. ww Private. The College is financially independent of state and federal government funding. In place of FEE-HELP, domestic students can opt for private tuition finance organised by Sheridan College’s parent not-for-profit association, Australian Baptist Education Inc.

Why “Sheridan”?

The name “Sheridan” is derived from the Celtic “sirideán”, which means “seeker” or “searcher”, and was frequently used in the context of seeking truth or wisdom.

ww Research-oriented. Students begin learning research skills in the first year of their undergraduate program, and have the opportunity to collaborate with faculty on broader College research projects. In their final year, all undergraduate students complete a substantial research project of their own. ww Conveniently-located. Sheridan College’s main campus is in the Perth CBD, adjacent to the train line and several bus routes. The Cultural Centre and many city amenities are also close by.

About Australian Baptist Education Inc. (ABE) For nearly 30 years, Baptists have steered the establishment of new private schools in Western Australia. In 2018, the Baptist denomination became the State’s third-largest private provider of K-12 education, with over 9000 students and 1000 staff studying and working in Baptist schools.

In 2009, Australian Baptist Education Inc. (ABE) was established to facilitate the ongoing extension of Baptist ministry through education. The ABE Board of Directors manages Quinns Baptist College (1996), Geelong Baptist College (2002), Alkimos Baptist College (2011) and Austin Cove Baptist College (2011).

Two ABE directors were previously foundation board members of Lake Joondalup Baptist College (1990) and served on the board of the school until 1999. Three ABE directors were previously foundation board members of Winthrop Baptist College (1994), and Somerville Baptist College (2004) – two schools which later merged to form Kennedy Baptist College (2013) – as well as serving as foundation board members of Mandurah Baptist College (2005).

The Executive Chair of ABE also served on the steering committee that established Carey Baptist College (1998).

The Sheridan College logo includes a stylised eagle’s wing, to acknowledge the support received from Quinns Baptist College and other Baptist schools during the College’s start-up.

The Baptist Intellectual Tradition

The Baptist Intellectual Tradition Baptists and Freedom The Baptist denomination began amongst English exiles in Amsterdam as a breakaway from the Anglican Church. Its founders, John Smith and Thomas Helwys, were strongly influenced by the Radical Reformation, rejecting theological creeds, and the formal offices of bishop and cardinal. They preached tolerance of all faiths, argued for the separation of church and state, and formed themselves into local, democratically-governed churches. In England, Baptists were quickly labelled as “dissenters” and “non-conformists” and became the target of state persecution.

The Sheridan College Statement of Academic Freedom records that Baptists were at the forefront of the struggle for freedom of conscience and freedom of association.

Twenty years before the early Enlightenment political philosopher, John Locke (1632-1704), was born and decades before he published “Letters Concerning Toleration” (1689-1692), the first Baptists were dying in prison for the cause of religious liberty.

Two first edition manuscripts of Thomas Helwys’s “A Short Declaration on the Mistery of Iniquity” (1611-12), which he sent to King James I, are preserved at Oxford University’s Regent’s Park College. In these documents can be found one of the most frequently quoted lines from Baptist history.

For our lord the king is but an earthly king, and he has no authority as a king but in earthly causes.

And if the king’s people be obedient and true subjects, obeying all human laws made by the king, our lord the king can require no more. For men’s religion to God is between God and themselves. The king shall not answer for it. Neither may the king be judge between God and man. Let them be heretics, Turks, Jews, or whatsoever, it appertains not to the earthly power to punish them in the least measure.

Regent’s Park College in Oxford

Page 4

James I had the combative Thomas Helwys imprisoned for his efforts, and he died there two years later, along with many similarly vocal early Baptists.

Baptists, like all non-Anglicans, were originally excluded from entry to Oxford and Cambridge Universities, although they could attend Scottish universities. They became actively involved in a number of independent colleges that were established in England, including founding Bristol College (1679), the world’s first free church academic institution.

Several major higher education institutions in the United States also share a Baptist heritage: Brown University, Temple University and the University of Chicago were founded by Baptists, while others, such as Baylor University, Mercer University, and Union University, retain a strong Baptist identity today. The International Association of Baptist Colleges and Universities (IABCU) brings together 41 Baptist higher education institutions in the US, Asia and Africa.

Worldwide, more than 100 million people now belong to a Baptist community. Baptists are driven by a vision of the common good which is wedded to the principles of religious liberty, freedom of conscience and freedom of association.

Academic Calendar

Academic Calendar The Sheridan College academic calendar runs on three 15-week semesters per year, called “trimesters”.

Each trimester comprises 12 weeks of teaching, two non-teaching study weeks, and an examination week.

Trimester 1: January – May Trimester 2: May – August Trimester 3: September – December

Undergraduate calendar For undergraduate students, Trimesters 1 and 3 are dedicated coursework trimesters. Full-time students will typically take 4 units in Trimester 1 (12 contact hours per week), and 3 units in Trimester 3 (9 contact hours per week).

Trimester 2 is a dedicated research trimester for all undergraduate students. Whether you are enrolled full-time or part-time, your only formal study during Trimester 2 will be a single research-related unit (3 contact hours per week).

Trimester 2 provides students the opportunity to acquire valuable research skills, and to practise applying those skills under the supervision of the College faculty. Each researchrelated unit can only be taken once a minimum of three (3) other undergraduate units have been completed in the relevant year of study.

Postgraduate calendar Master students also enjoy a reduced number of units in Trimester 2. This allows students to give extra attention to the research projects beginning in this trimester.

Trimester 2 extra-curricular activities The reduced course load in Trimester 2 offers undergraduate and postgraduate students some freedom to pursue personal, professional and learning goals outside of their formal coursework. The College facilitates a range of extra-curricular programs during this trimester for students to gain life experience and enhance their employability.

Programs on offer in 2018/2019 include: ww Starting your own small business or social enterprise. Under the College’s mentorship (and potentially with its financial backing) you have the opportunity to formulate a business plan, then establish and begin operating a small business or social enterprise while completing your course. ww Attendance at seminars organised by the Small Business Development Corporation. ww Overseas language immersion trip. Accelerate your language acquisition by immersing yourself in the language overseas. In 2018/2019, Sheridan College offers extended language learning trips to China, Japan and Jordan. ww Student-teacher placement for prospective language teachers. For those considering language teaching as a career, the College can offer extra-curricular student-teacher placements in its associated Baptist K-12 schools. ww A research placement in one of Sheridan College’s long-term research projects. Join Sheridan College faculty members in one of the College’s major research projects - experimenting with artificial photosynthesis (Science); researching the Indian Ocean world (Arts); or investigating the Western Australian not-for-profit sector (Business). ww Creative writing retreat. Spend a few weeks in Margaret River, away from the noise and distraction of city life, to participate in intensive writing workshops facilitated by published author and poet Dr Miriam Lo. ww St John’s Ambulance certificate qualifications ww Self-defence classes ww Earning a truck or bus license ww Completion of a VET sector course. Improve your employability by adding a practical VET qualification to your academic degree. (Domestic students only). ww Enrolment in a unit at another higher education institution.

Increase your choices of units by enrolling in a unit at a different institution during Trimester 2. Before enrolling, check with the Sheridan College administration to ensure that the unit can be considered for credit towards one of Sheridan College’s degree programs. (Domestic students only).

Choosing your course of study

The Australian tertiary education sector includes two kinds of education institutions:

Choosing a higher education course is the first step to entering the professional workforce, achieving financial independence, and starting you on your way to fulfilling your personal ambitions for life.

1. Vocational education providers - known as Registered Training Organisations (RTOs). These include TAFEs and private training colleges.

Here’s a few basic principles to keep in mind:

1 2 3

4 5 6

Figure out your passion.

What is it that captures your imagination?

Does your passion pay? You have to eat, put a roof over your head, and pay bills. That means providing a good or a service to someone, somewhere.

That means working. Your career might be your passion. Or it could simply be the means of supporting yourself while you pursue your passion in another field.

Think in both short-term and long-term timeframes.

It is rare for people to remain in one career for their whole Replace with lives, so having multiple skill-sets is always an advantage. This might mean combining an undergraduate Bachelor of Arts (Chinese Studies) with a Graduate Diploma of Business Administration, for example. Sheridan College’s low fees open up the opportunity to study longer without accumulating a substantial student debt.

Read the news regularly, and learn about future employment trends. Consider courses that will position you to meet these future needs.

Once you start, make sure you finish. But if you do decide to change courses, seek out credit for previous study. Rest assured that no study is wasted.

It is surprising what becomes useful for you at different stages in your career.

If you need a break from study, the door behind you doesn’t close. There are many pathways back.

Understanding the tertiary education sector

2. Higher education providers. These include universities and private higher education colleges such as Sheridan College.

These providers are approved to deliver a range of courses recognised under the Australian Qualifications Framework (see Australian Qualifications Framework table).

What is the difference between vocational education and higher education?

Vocational education is distinguished by a focus on the demonstration of practical skills. Vocational education transcripts have a list of units, accompanied by the signifiers Competent (CO) or Not Yet Competent (NYC).

Higher education is distinguished by a focus on the demonstration of critical thinking skills. Higher education transcripts have a list of units, accompanied by marks such as High Distinction (HD), Distinction (D), Credit (C), Pass (P) or Fail (F).

What is the difference between a course and a unit?

A course is a program of study which leads to a higher education qualification, for example, a Bachelor of Business.

A unit is a single subject within a higher education course.

Each unit will have a unit code and a title, for example MK101 Principles of Marketing, which is a 1st-year unit in the Bachelor of Business. A full-time student will expect to complete eight (8) standard units in a given academic year.

What is the difference between undergraduate and postgraduate?

An undergraduate student is a higher education student who has not yet achieved a first degree. This includes all higher education courses up to and including the level of a Bachelor degree (AQF Level 7). In undergraduate degrees, students are introduced to the essential knowledge of a specific academic discipline.

A postgraduate student is a student who continues to study for an advanced degree after having earned a Bachelor or other first degree. In postgraduate degrees, students encounter more specialised knowledge and are required to demonstrate a higher level of independence in their studies.

Australian Qualifications Framework

What is the difference between a major and a specialisation?

AQF Level Qualification

A major is a series of eight (8) or more units which satisfies the requirements for a concentration within a Sheridan College Bachelor degree.

Choosing Your Course of Study + Explanation of Key Terms

A specialisation is a series of units which satisfies the requirements for a concentration within a Sheridan College postgraduate coursework degree.

What is the difference between a diploma and a graduate diploma?

A diploma is a 1-year undergraduate degree which meets the requirements for AQF Level 5.

A graduate diploma is a 1-year postgraduate degree which meets the requirements for AQF Level 8.

The Core Curriculum

CS100 Introduction to Christianity

As a major concern of this unit is to encourage critical engagement with the text of the Bible itself, many of the assigned readings are drawn from selected books of the Bible. These primary source readings are complemented by secondary sources that shed light on methods of interpretation as well as the content of biblical theology.

Dialogue between the teachings of the Bible and the worldviews of students will be encouraged.

Historically, the Christian religion exercised a formative influence on many facets of Western culture—its political institutions, its modes of intellectual enquiry, its moral customs and habits, its art, music and architecture, to name a few. Even in today’s secular postmodern culture, the Christian community continues to contribute to public debates on issues as diverse as bioethics, terrorism, sustainable development, environmental protection, labour rights, family law, multiculturalism and immigration.

Regardless of the religious beliefs you hold, if any, an understanding of the basic teachings of Christianity can help you better understand the sources of the social world we now inhabit.

In addition to its purely religious significance, the Bible is an important cultural resource that has influenced the course of Western history from ancient times until the present. Modern notions of democracy and individual freedom, for example, are traceable not only to Graeco-Roman thought but also to the Bible. The significance of post-apocalyptic and messianic imagery in contemporary literature and film cannot be fully appreciated by those unfamiliar with biblical symbolism.

So as you explore the teachings of the Bible in this unit, you will discover a world of ideas and images of interest to any well-informed citizen.

In keeping with the Baptist education tradition, all undergraduate students will take three units from the School of Christian Studies – 1 unit for each year of their degree – to broaden their learning beyond their chosen academic discipline.

This unit focuses on surveying the basic doctrines, moral teachings and practices of Christianity. The content is organized topically, drawing on a variety of theological perspectives. Attention will be given to some of the distinctive teachings of specific Christian traditions, including Eastern Orthodoxy, Roman Catholicism, the magisterial Reformation, and the Radical Reformation/Anabaptism.

Students are encouraged to engage in critical reflection on the Christian worldview in light of their own religious views and life experience as adult learners. The intellectual journey taken during this unit will encourage you to become a discerning thinker as you explore the foundations of Christian belief and practice.

CS200 Survey of the Bible This unit aims to familiarize you with the organization and content of the Christian Bible—the Old Testament and the New Testament.

You will be introduced to basic principles for reading the Bible as Scripture: the need to interpret biblical texts not in isolation but within a broader horizon of literary, historical, and theological context. Attention will also be given to the distinction between the original meaning of a biblical text and its meaning for the community of faith today.

We will discuss the literary structure of the Old and New Testaments and the theological relationship between the two Testaments. Through primary source readings, you will become familiar with central themes of the Biblical narrative as a whole.

Page 10

CS300 Christianity as a Worldview This unit introduces you to worldview analysis, which is a philosophical framework for evaluating Christianity and other meta-narratives. A worldview is essentially a comprehensive ‘picture’ of the world based on certain fundamental assumptions about the nature of reality.

Worldview analysis argues that what we perceive in everyday life is always filtered through a set of pre-theoretical assumptions. Yet we often remain unaware of these assumptions, and the way they shape our broader worldview.

This unit will encourage critical interaction between the Christian worldview and your own worldview, as you learn to examine the Christian tradition from the standpoint of worldview analysis, and to identify and scrutinize the philosophical assumptions on which your own worldview may be based.

We will describe the worldview concept and its limitations, asking whether and in what sense Christianity can be usefully described as a worldview. To help you better understand what a worldview is, some influential alternatives to the Christian worldview will also be discussed. Lastly, attention will be given to the relationship between the Christian worldview and selected academic disciplines.

NOTES: F – Full time, P – Part time.

A standard full-time load is 8 units per year.

The course fees are for 2018. They are indicative of a normal full-time load and are subject to annual increases. Textbooks and field trips are included in the costs of study.

Tuition Finance Instead of paying fees upfront, domestic students can opt into a student loan scheme managed by Australia Baptist Education Inc. ABE tuition finance performs the same function as the FEE-HELP scheme established for public universities. Like FEE-HELP, ABE loans are indexed to inflation.

Loans repayments start after graduation, and are payable over a 10-year period. Domestic students may use the tuition finance scheme to cover the cost of their deposit.

Did you graduate from a Baptist high school in WA? Each year, Sheridan College reserves a number of tuition-free placements for graduates of Baptist secondary schools. Baptist graduates will be able to complete any undergraduate or postgraduate degree offered by Sheridan College without incurring a student debt. You will only be asked to cover the costs of textbooks and field trips.

Why? Sheridan College has been established as a direct results of support received from members of the Baptist education community. The College wishes to recognise this support and to acknowledge the trust that families have placed in the Baptist network of schools and colleges over many years.

This offer is extended to Year 12 graduates of any Baptist secondary school, past or present, in WA.
