Traditional Degree Program
Bachelor of Arts in Ministry or Associate of Arts in Ministry
Nazarene Bible College offers two degrees-the Bachelor of Arts in Ministry (B.A.Min.) and the Associate of Arts in Ministry (A.A.Min.). The B.A.Min. degree is offered through two design structures-the traditional degree structure and the Advantage accelerated degree structure. Both accredited college structures are offered on campus and online.
In the traditional degree structure, a B.A.Min. major can be taken in Bible and Theology, Christian Counseling (campus only), Christian Educational Ministries, Christian School Education, Counseling for Christian Ministries (online only), Music Ministries, or Pastoral Ministries. In addition to a major, it is possible to receive a minor in Biblical Languages, Christian Educational Ministries, Leadership and Ethics, Missions, Music Ministries, or Pastoral Ministries.
The A.A.Min. degree (traditional degree structure only) offers concentrations in Church Ministries, Christian Educational Ministries, and Music Ministries. The associate of arts degree requires a minimum of 64 semester hours for graduation.

Ministry Preparation Program
Fulfilling Education Requirements for Ordination
MPP provides college level education for completing the denominational course of study (COS) for ordination as elder in the Church of the Nazarene. NBC is approved by the Church of the Nazarene International Board of Education for training leaders toward ordination or commission in the ministries of the Church of the Nazarene. NBC provides educational courses for ordination, but does not ordain people.
Continuing Education

Nazarene Bible College, in an effort to provide ministerial continuing Christian education through an online delivery system, has created the Institute for Ministry Enrichment. This service to the church is designed as a high quality, low cost program that can benefit the clergy in every church.
