B.sc Christian Religious Studies

Philosophy of the Department

The Christian Religious Studies program is designed to provide a deep understanding of biblical teachings, Christian theology, and the historical development of the Church. Our curriculum integrates rigorous academic study with spiritual formation, preparing students for ministry, teaching, and leadership roles in religious and secular institutions.

We emphasize biblical literacy, ethical reasoning, and contextual theology to equip graduates who can engage thoughtfully with contemporary issues from a Christian perspective.

"All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness."

— 2 Timothy 3:16 (NIV)
