The Master of Arts degree in Science and Religion is designed to provide individuals with the essential background in theology, history, and philosophy necessary to integrate modern science with evangelical Christianity.

The curriculum is designed for students who already have some background in the sciences; consequently the course work emphasizes the critical tools from other disciplines that are necessary for providing the proper context and foundation for understanding and working comfortably with issues that relate to both Christianity and the sciences. Special seminars focus on current theological issues within specific scientific disciplines so that students will understand the contemporary dynamic and learn to integrate their thinking in a mentored setting.

The program fosters in students a mature and informed Christian worldview from which to serve the Lord and to relate to their secular colleagues in the sciences.

The program is available in a format that combines distance learning and on-campus learning in an academically robust manner. This is a proven method of education that is designed to make the M.A. in Science and Religion available to students who cannot relocate to southern California for the course work. Some short-term campus visits are required during the summer, offering the opportunity to interact with faculty, fellow students, and preeminent guest scholars and lecturers.

The new Master of Arts degree in Science and Religion is designed to provide scientifically literate individuals with the essential background in theology, history, and philosophy that is necessary to integrate modern science with evangelical Christianity.
