AAMR - Associate of Arts in Ministry - Religious Studies
A Two Year Program (60 Credits)
Program Coordinator: TBA |
|
A valuable preparation for secular university studies, our AAMR will provide you with introductory level humanities and /or social sciences courses while helping you develop a foundational biblical perspective within these disciplines.
Program Overview
Prairie’s AAMR program will equip you to:
• Articulate the fundamental doctrines and themes of Scripture.
• Detail your role and responsibility to the global Church.
• Evaluate all of life's issues and questions in light of biblical truth based on your development of a Christian worldview.
• Study the Bible and apply it to life situations and other academic subjects.
• Communicate your faith clearly to others.
Expanded Opportunities
Your training through our AAMR program will provide you with a vital biblical foundation that will complement and enhance your future professional training. Depending on your choice of electives the AAGS can be structured to count as two years toward one of Prairie's four-year programs. You should be able to transfer many of your credits to another school (you will need to confirm transferability requirements with them) and continue towards a Bachelor's degree in a large number of fields.
The AAMR program can also be completed entirely through Prairie Distance Education (some course listings may differ). Call toll-free for the Distance Education program outline (1-800-785-4226), or send an e-mail to distanceed@prairie.edu
