Certificate of Medical Missions (Men)

What Will I Study?

The University believes there is a need for missionary workers who are able to minister to the physical as well as the spiritual needs of men; therefore, a program has been designed to give the necessary spiritual training to qualify as missionary workers to those having completed the B.S.N. degree. This program requires 33-35 hours of undergraduate and graduate courses. Secure an undergraduate Catalog for course descriptions.

A basic part of the medical missions program is a visit to a mission field for student and practical experience. This special one-year certificate program combines thorough preparation in Bible and mission work with specialized application of science and medicine to the mission field.
