The Individualized Major/Minor
Any specialized religion or philosophy area can become a specialized major
by combining an appropriate set of courses from various departments. A
proposal would be submitted to a faculty committee for approval.
Church-related or service-oriented vocations are special
areas of possible interdisciplinary majors, such as Christian Education,
Church Administration, or other types of Diaconal ministry. Below
is an example of such a proposal.
