Core curriculum classes span a variety of disciplines, biblical and theological studies, including English, math, science, history, language, communications, and fine arts. In some cases, you might have the opportunity to take classes in addition to the core curriculum, biblical studies and major course requirements. These electives provide you the chance to explore different fields of interest.
