Crandall-Acadia Bachelor of Theology Partnership
This unique partnership gives students enrolled at Crandall University in Moncton, NB, the opportunity to enroll in the Bachelor of Theology degree program with Acadia University (through Acadia Divinity College) concurrent with their Crandall degree program. Students take specialized courses that focus on personal discipleship, Christian service in the church and community, as well as courses in Biblical studies and theology. Practical elements in the program provide students the opportunity to serve and lead locally and internationally.
This degree is designed specifically for those students who have a passion for serving God and developing a stronger relationship with Him. While not designed to prepare students for ordained ministry, this double-degree learning experience is an excellent foundation for those who wish to do further study towards a Master of Divinity degree.
