Bachelor in 신학과

신학과, meaning Department of Theology, is a bachelor's program at Gimcheon University, located in Gimcheon, South Korea. This field of undergraduate study introduces students to the academic and practical dimensions of Christian theology, typically within a broader Christian higher education setting. Coursework at the undergraduate level generally covers biblical studies across the Old and New Testament, introductory systematic theology, church history, and foundational courses in ministry practice, alongside general education requirements common to a four-year bachelor's degree. Students build skills in reading and interpreting biblical texts, understanding major Christian doctrines, and developing basic ministry competencies such as public speaking, pastoral care, and religious education, often through a combination of classroom instruction and supervised church or community involvement. As students progress, coursework may become more specialized, addressing topics such as missiology, worship leadership, or counseling from a faith-based perspective, preparing them either for direct entry into ministry-related roles or for further theological study at the graduate level. Because theology programs at the bachelor's level combine academic content with formation for religious life, graduates often pursue paths such as church ministry assistants, religious education staff, missionary work, or continued study toward a Master of Divinity or related graduate theology degree. The program runs four years, with new students admitted in March. Instruction is delivered in English, and applicants must meet a language requirement that includes a TOEFL iBT score of 3.5, alternatively listed as a TOEFL iBT score of 59, an IELTS score of 5.5, CEFR level B2, or a New TEPS score of 202. Located in Gimcheon, the university offers an undergraduate theological education delivered in English for an international student body.
