Bachelor of Transformational Development

The Bachelor of Transformational Development degree is an interdisciplinary study which offers a synthesis of Christian Studies and Business and teaches the integration of these areas to transform lives and communities for Christ through organizational development. The study of Christian theology and missiology, combined with the study of foundational business principles, prepares students to be servant-leaders as they create and sustain mission-based organizations, churches, ministries, non-profits, and for-profit business, both locally and globally.
