This program places a strong emphasis on Biblical, Theological, and Historical studies, particularly the Biblical languages.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The degree is composed of both a \u201ccore curriculum\u201d category and an \u201celectives\u201d category. The \u201ccore curriculum\u201d lists all the courses that the student must take and receive credit for in order to graduate. The “electives” category consists of the student’s ability to choose courses to complete his\/her degree. Usually, he\/she chooses electives that meet his\/her interests.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n Credits Hours:<\/strong> 120<\/p>\n Number of Courses:<\/strong> 45<\/p>\n Minors:<\/strong> Electives can be chosen with the intent to declare a minor. A minor consists of nine<\/span> or more credit hours of electives in the same department.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_tabs active_tab_background_color=”#FFFFFF” inactive_tab_background_color=”RGBA(255,255,255,0)” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” tab_text_color=”#000000″ body_line_height=”2.5em” background_color=”RGBA(255,255,255,0)” width=”100%” border_color_all=”#efe9e5″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_tab title=”Required Courses” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” tab_font=”|700|||||||” tab_font_size=”15px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n\n Rotating Courses: A (First Semester), B (Second Semester)<\/p>\n * This course is required for any first semester student.<\/p>\n ** Each student will sit for language placement tests and have a passing grade in one or more preferred language(s). The student is approved to adopt a particular language, in which he\/she has had a passing grade, as writing\/research language. The other language(s) in which the student did not have a passing grade will be offered, free of charge<\/em>, as (a) required course(s) in the student\u2019s first and second semesters. Students are to take these courses as many times as needed until a passing grade is reached. Each of these language classes has the workload value of a 1 credit-hours course, yet these hours do not accumulate towards the degree.<\/p>\n Additional Note<\/strong>:<\/p>\n One credit hour requires 1.1 hours (1h06\u2019) class time and 2.2 additional hours (2h12\u2019) of personal work per week, for one semester. Thus, a 3-credit hours course requires 3.3 hours of class time and 6.6 (6h36\u2019) additional hours of personal work per week, for one semester.<\/p>\n A student enrolled in courses totaling 12 credit hours should expect a 40-hours workload per week, for one semester.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=”Electives” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” tab_font=”|700|||||||” tab_font_size=”15px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n\n Rotating Courses: A (First Semester), B (Second Semester)<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_tab][\/et_pb_tabs][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/ftbm.mg\/course-descriptions\/” url_new_window=”on” button_text=”See Course Descriptions” button_alignment=”center” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>",
