FOREWORD

The population of the world is increas-ing at an unprecedented rate. There isan explosive increase in knowledge, andpeople are eager to learn. GlobalUniversity has responded to this need bydeveloping its own instructional tools inprint, audio, video, CD-ROM, online,and two-way interactive conferencingthat take the school to the student.

By utilizing the tools of modern educa-tional technology, Global University isexpanding the resources of the church.The university’s courses are applicablefor distance-education instruction,school classrooms, learning centers, andother types of group and individualstudy.

Qualified writers from many nations areinvited to participate in writing anddeveloping the course materials that arethen distributed around the world inmany languages. Thus the GlobalUniversity motto, All the Word to Allthe World, becomes a reality.

HISTORY

Global University has a distinguishedheritage spanning more than fivedecades. Its rich history is a blending ofthe achievements of two distance edu-cation universities. This dual founda-tion of experience adds academicstrength to the new entity created bythe merger of ICI and BereanUniversities.

Groundwork for the Assemblies of GodFellowship’s distance-education pro-gram was laid at the 1941 session ofthe General Council. The Councilappointed J. Narver Gortner to head acommittee to prepare a reading coursefor a three-year ministerial preparationprogram. Leaders of the Fellowshipencouraged ministerial candidates totake advantage of this opportunity toprepare for full-time ministry.

Students who were not able to attend aresidential Bible school could nowstudy at home, preparing mentally andspiritually for preaching the gospel.District councils participated by givingexaminations based on the books in therecommended courses.

The ministerial studies program went astep further in 1948 when Frank M.Boyd officially established the GeneralCouncil Correspondence School. By1958, the school’s curriculum consistedof 11 courses, and its name changed toBerean School of the Bible. In 1967, theFellowship’s Board of Education sug-gested that the ministerial training pro-gram be officially assigned to BereanSchool of the Bible.

That same year saw the launching of asecond distance-education school: amissions organization designed to pro-vide evangelism/discipleship coursesand bachelor degrees to students allover the world. Thus InternationalCorrespondence Institute (ICI) wasfounded under the auspices of theDivision of Foreign Missions. GeorgeM. Flattery, who had made the propos-al to establish the school, was appoint-ed as president.

For its first five years, ICI operated itsministry out of a small office inSpringfield, Missouri. To meet anexpanding international constituency, in1972 ICI moved to Brussels, Belgium,where the rented facilities soon becametoo small for the institution. To meetthe growing needs, a five-story buildingwas constructed in Rhode-Saint Genese.This facility housed the ICIInternational Headquarters from 1975until 1991.

Back in the United States, theFellowship faced a growing need forstateside distance education, so theAssemblies of God Board of Educationin August 1969 recommended that

three levels of study be provided forthose preparing for ministry. BereanSchool of the Bible then expanded itsbasic course studies for those preparingto become exhorters (now called certi-fied ministers), licensed ministers, andordained ministers.

In March 1973, a unified ministerialtraining program of 17 courses wasapproved as one phase of Berean’s con-tinued efforts to serve the Fellowship’sstateside needs for distance education inthe Bible and Bible-related areas.Between 1973 and 1995, courserequirements for the Ministerial StudiesDiploma increased by intervals to whatthey are today: 33 courses.

Berean School of the Bible becameBerean College in 1985 when college-level curriculum was incorporated intothe program. Another name changecame in 1995 when the graduate pro-grams were added: the school becameBerean University. However, BereanSchool of the Bible has always beenretained as the name of the division ofthe institution having oversight of theadult continuing education ministerialtraining programs.

In 1993, two years after the transitionof the ICI International Office fromBrussels, Belgium, to Irving, Texas, sev-eral factors indicated the need for aname change: (1) its growth, (2) its var-ied structure of schools and centers, (3)the addition of a School of GraduateStudies, and (4) the need for an all-inclusive name recognizable to othereducational and governmental institu-tions around the world. International

Correspondence Institute became ICIUniversity. But through the move andthe name change, the school’s missionremained the same: evangelism, disci-pleship, and training.

The leaders of the Fellowship had beenanticipating a merger of the two institu-tions for several years. The advent ofelectronic delivery of learning materialsand instruction via the Internet elimi-nated all geographical barriers, acceler-ating the need to unite the two intoone. In consultation with the ForeignMissions Board, GeneralSuperintendent Thomas Trask agreed toinitiate the merger.

The move toward a unified operationcame at an opportune time. Both uni-versities were on the brink of significantadvances in electronic delivery via theInternet and other advanced technolo-gies. Rather than duplicating costlydelivery systems, a united universityresults in better stewardship of bothtechnology and human resources.

Global University is writing new chap-ters of history as it fulfills the commit-ment to take All the Word to All theWorld.

Programs of Study

Page 18: 2004 undergrad revised - Global UniversityHigher Education of the State of Missouri. ... Washington, D.C. The Accrediting Commission of the Distance Education and Training Council

Global University’s degree programs areprovided by the School of Bible andTheology and the School of GraduateStudies. Together, these schools makeavailable a wide range of specific pro-grams: certificates and diplomas, associ-ate of arts, bachelor of arts, and masterof arts degrees. For further informationconcerning the programs describedbelow, please contact your director orthe International Office of GlobalUniversity or check the university’s website, www.globaluniversity.edu.

SCHOOL OF BIBLE AND THEOLOGYThe programs of the School of Bibleand Theology are designed for minis-ters, ministerial students, and layper-sons who are serious in their desire fora biblical education. The degree pro-grams are open to all with a highschool diploma or its equivalent. Forthose with previous undergraduatetraining, advanced academic placementthrough transfer of credit is possible.

General Education: CurricularPhilosophy and Objectives

Global University’s curriculum isdesigned to give its students the kind oflearning experiences that lead not onlyto depth of knowledge and skill in themajor area of study but also to a com-plementary breadth of learning.Consequently, the institution believes

that every degree program shouldrequire the student to complete threecomponents: (1) a comprehensive Bibleand Theology core, (2) a broad generaleducation core, and (3) a selectedmajor. The Bible and Theology coreprovides a basic biblical education forall students. The general education corehelps students understand the contem-

porary world and how to relate theirown lives to it. The selected majorallows students to prepare themselvesaccording to their individual interests,abilities, and sense of calling.

The Institution’s curricular philosophyhas historically maintained a commit-ment to the ideal that its students willreceive a wide-ranging education. Suchbreadth is best achieved through a com-

17

D E G R E E P R O G R A M S

Page 19: 2004 undergrad revised - Global UniversityHigher Education of the State of Missouri. ... Washington, D.C. The Accrediting Commission of the Distance Education and Training Council

prehensive general education compo-nent required in each Degree Program.This component includes studies inOral and Written Communication,Humanities, Fine Arts, Social andBehavioral Sciences, Natural Sciences,Mathematics, and Computer Literacy.

Since the current Undergraduate DegreePrograms are all ministry related, theyrequire a similar general education

core. This selection of courses exposesthe student to a wide range of disci-plines deemed necessary to intelligentinteraction with fellow citizens. Thusthere is a practical need driving the gen-eral education requirement.

This general education componentdemonstrates breadth and coherencethrough variety and promotes criticalthinking and creativity through its sys-tem of evaluation, course projects, andcollateral reading assignments.

Core Education Rationale

Core studies are required of every stu-dent seeking an associate or bachelor’sdegree with Global University. The goalof the core education component ofeach degree program is to equip aGlobal University student with thebroad horizons, knowledge, and skillsrequired to contribute to the bettermentof the individual and society and to laythe foundation for becoming a lifelonglearner.

Studies in Humanities, Fine Arts, Socialand Behavioral Sciences, NaturalSciences and Mathematics,Communication, and Computer Skillsare intended to enable GlobalUniversity students to attain this goal.The institution recognizes the impor-tance of these content areas to thedevelopment of historical perspective,communication, critical thinking, andquantitative reasoning skills necessaryto life in a global society.

Assessment of Achievement

The Global University evaluation sys-tem is based on the ideal of masterylearning, objective-based course con-tent, formative and summative evalua-

18

G l o b a l U n i v e r s i t y

Page 20: 2004 undergrad revised - Global UniversityHigher Education of the State of Missouri. ... Washington, D.C. The Accrediting Commission of the Distance Education and Training Council

tion, and criterion-referenced testing.Each course presents the student withbroad goals and specific objectives. Aninstructional design guides the learningprocess. Formative evaluation takesplace throughout the course, and asummative evaluation is its capstone.

Thus the student is given the opportuni-ty to demonstrate that he or sheobtained the requisite learning andskills. This is accomplished thoughvalid and reliable evaluation, the com-pletion of projects, the reading of col-lateral literature, and various forms ofwritten responses requiring the demon-stration of analytical ability, criticalthinking, evaluation skills, and clarityof communication in written form.Thus in addition to specific course out-comes, the objectives of creativity andcritical thinking pervade curricular pat-terns. This integrated approach overar-ches the curriculum.

SCHOOL OF GRADUATE STUDIESThe mission of the School of GraduateStudies is to provide advanced, in-depth, specialized study of the Bibleand related subjects at the post-bache-lor’s degree level. Its purpose is to equipstudents for individual research, personalscholarship, and practical application.The School of Graduate Studies offerspost-baccalaureate degrees through anindividually structured distance-educa-tion format by utilizing mentors andprinted and electronic materials toguide students in study and research.The degrees offered are a Master ofArts in Biblical Studies, a Master ofArts in Ministerial Studies, and aMaster of Divinity (post baccalaureate).For more information about specificgraduate programs, request a GlobalUniversity Graduate Studies catalogfrom your director or the InternationalOffice of Global University or check theGlobal University web site: www.globaluniversity.edu.

BASIC STANDARDS OF ACADEMIC INTEGRITY

Registration at Global Universityrequires adherence to the university’sstandards of academic integrity. Manyof these standards may be intuitivelyunderstood and cannot in any case belisted exhaustively; the following exam-ples represent some basic types ofbehavior that are unacceptable:

1. Cheating: using unauthorized notes,aids, or information when taking anexamination; submitting work doneby someone else as your own; copy-ing or paraphrasing someone else’sessays, projects, or other work andsubmitting it as your own.

2. Plagiarism: submitting someone else’swork and claiming it as your own orneglecting to give appropriate docu-mentation when using any kind ofreference materials. Plagiarism,whether done purposefully or unin-tentionally, includes copying or para-phrasing materials from the studyguide, textbook, someone else’s writ-ing, or any other source (published orunpublished). Any words, thoughts,

or ideas taken from any other sourcemust be properly documented accord-ing to an accepted style manual.

3. Fabrication: falsifying or inventingany information, data, or citation.

4. Obtaining an Unfair Advantage:(a) stealing, reproducing, circulating,or otherwise gaining access to exami-nation materials prior to the timeauthorized by the instructor; (b)unauthorized collaborating on anacademic assignment; (c) retaining,possessing, using, or circulating pre-viously given examination materialswhere those materials clearly indi-cate that they are to be returned tothe advisor or to the GlobalUniversity offices at the conclusionof the examination.

CODE OF CONDUCT

Global University is a Christian educa-tional institution aiming to, among

other things, equip men and women tofulfill God’s calling on their lives.Christian conduct is therefore anexpected norm. While GlobalUniversity reaches many culturesaround the world, it is understood thatsome practices acceptable in one culturemay not be acceptable in another.

As Christians we look to the Scriptureto guide us in our conduct; therefore,students are expected to conduct them-selves according to biblical principles ofbehavior. Examples of such principlesare found in Romans 12:9-21;Galatians 5:22-23; and Ephesians 4:1-3,25-32. The Code of Conduct alsoapplies to verbal and written communi-cation with Global University represen-tatives, faculty, staff, and students; fur-thermore, it extends to all electroniccommunication, including threaded dis-cussions and E-mail with faculty andstudents.

Violation of the Code of Conduct mayresult in disciplinary action.

DUE PROCESS OF STUDENTRIGHTS

In all cases involving academic dishon-esty, the student charged or suspectedshall, at a minimum, be accorded thefollowing rights:

1. Prompt investigation of all chargesof academic dishonesty, to be con-ducted, insofar as possible, in a man-ner that prevents public disclosure ofthe student’s identity. Such investiga-tion may include informal reviewand discussion with an official of the

school prior to bringing a charge,provided that such review does notcompromise the rights of the studentin the formal process.

2. Reasonable written notice of thefacts and evidence underlying thecharge of academic dishonesty andof the principle(s) of academicintegrity said to have been violated.

3. Reasonable written notice of the pro-cedure by which the accuracy of thecharge will be determined.

4. Reasonable time, if requested, withinwhich to prepare a response to thecharge.

5. A hearing or meeting at which thestudent involved may be heard andthe accuracy of the charge deter-mined by a neutral decision-maker.

6. Review of any adverse initial deter-mination, if requested, by an appealscommittee to whom the student hasaccess in person. Generally, imple-mentation of sanctions will be sus-pended until all appeals made by thestudent have been exhausted.

7. Final review of an unsuccessfulappeal, if requested, by the Presidentor an advisory committee designatedby the President.

1. Which program of study would besthelp you achieve your long-termgoals?

2. Which program of study requirescourses with topics that interest you?

3. Have you completed college-levelcourses from other schools that mightbe applied as transfer of credit forspecific Global University courses?

You also have the option of selecting anon-program of study. This optionallows you to enroll in courses at ran-dom, but it does not give you the abili-ty to earn a diploma. In order to earn adiploma, you must change your non-program status by selecting one of theprograms of study listed in the mostcurrent publication of theUndergraduate Catalog.

Once you have chosen a program ofstudy, you must remain an active stu-dent in order to complete that particu-lar program of study. If your studentrecord shows no course activity (enroll-ments) for a period longer than 18months, you become an inactive stu-

dent. Enrolling in a course will changeyour status from inactive to active.However, your program of study willbe changed to the current requirements.For instance, if you declared a programof study in 1997 but became inactive,when you reactivate your studentrecord, you can no longer graduate bycompleting the requirements for your1997 program of study. Instead, youwould need to complete the require-ments for the 2004 program of study.

ENROLLMENT WITH ADVANCEDPLACEMENTStudents who wish to transfer creditinto Global University or who feel theyqualify for advanced placement in theirstudy programs may request advancedplacement when they apply for an aca-demic program of study. The optionsfor obtaining advanced placement arelisted below.

1. Presenting transcripts of credit fromother academic institutionsThe student should request that theother academic institution send anofficial copy of his or her transcriptdirectly to the Global Universityenrollment office. This transcript andother pertinent documents should beon hand at the time of the applica-tion.

The maximum number of creditswhich can be accepted in transfertoward the B.A. degree is 96. Theminimum study required with GlobalUniversity for any diploma or degreeis 32 credits. Transfer credit is grant-ed only for courses in which theequivalent to Global University’sstandard for a “C” (average) or bet-ter has been earned. All transfercredit must fit Global University’sacademic program requirements.Courses in which a grade of “pass”is received must be certified by theschool as being equivalent to GlobalUniversity’s standard for a “C” or

higher in order to be accepted intransfer.

Transcripts and official documentsmust be in English or be accompa-nied by an official translation intoEnglish. Where official transcriptsare unobtainable due to circum-stances beyond the student’s control,Global University may accept forreview a valid affidavit that substan-tiates the student’s academic record.In all cases, Global Universityreserves the right to determinewhether it will accept transfer creditsfrom another academic institution.

2. Credit for experience-based learningIf you have achieved demonstrableproficiency in a course subject orcourse subjects offered by GlobalUniversity, you may qualify foradvanced placement in undergradu-ate programs based on the document-ed evidence of your experience.

Global University is committed to theposition of the Distance Educationand Training Council (USA) onTransfer and Equivalent Credit, whichincludes the following provision:

Page 46: 2004 undergrad revised - Global UniversityHigher Education of the State of Missouri. ... Washington, D.C. The Accrediting Commission of the Distance Education and Training Council

The amount of credit for experientiallearning is determined by the GlobalUniversity Academic AffairsCommittee. This determination isbased on a review of the student’sExperiential Learning Portfolio.Forms and instructions for the com-pletion of your Experiential LearningPortfolio can be obtained from yourGlobal University enrollment office.

In no case will the award of experi-ential credit exceed one-fourth of thetotal credits required for the degree,nor will experiential credit substitutefor the final one-fourth of the pro-gram which must be completed bydirect enrollment.

3. College Level Examination Program(CLEP)Global University accepts up to 32credits for the subject and generalexaminations of the nationallyadministered College LevelExamination Program (CLEP). Theacceptance of these credits is basedon the student’s having earned thecredit granting scores recommendedby the American Council onEducation.

ADMISSION TO STUDY FOR A SEC-OND BACHELOR’S DEGREETo begin a study program leading to asecond bachelor’s degree, you must:

1. Possess a bachelor’s degree from aqualified institution.

2. Observe all the entrance proceduresoutlined by your Global Universitydirector and mark on your applica-tion form that you are applying to

work toward a second B.A.3. Request that the institutions where

your previous academic work wascompleted send an official copy ofyour transcript to your GlobalUniversity director.

STUDENT ADVISEMENTGlobal University strives to provide asmuch assistance as possible in planningthe educational programs of its stu-dents. However, it is the interest andself-discipline of students that will deter-mine success in meeting educationalgoals. Certain courses have prerequisitesor recommended sequences that stu-dents are encouraged to follow. Theseprerequisites and recommendations arenoted in the course descriptions.

THE STUDENT NUMBER ANDSTUDENT CARDA student residing in the U.S. is issued astudent number when his or her appli-cation is processed. An internationalstudent is issued a student number bythe International Office upon his or herfirst enrollment in a Global Universityundergraduate course. The studentnumber must be used on all coursework and on all correspondence orelectronic communication between thestudent and the Global Universityenrollment office. Under no circum-stances will the student be permitted totake a final examination nor will creditbe given for a course without an officialassigned student number. Upon request,a student card will be issued to any stu-dent who is enrolled in a GlobalUniversity undergraduate course. Thiscard will allow the student access toany institutional library that cooperates

with Global University as a host schoolor has signed a library agreement withGlobal University. These host schoolsare found in most countries whereGlobal University has undergraduatestudents. If you are an internationalstudent, ask your director for a list ofcooperating libraries in your country.

ACADEMIC GOOD STANDINGTo remain in academic good standing,an undergraduate student must main-tain a cumulative grade point average(GPA) of 2.00 or a cumulative gradeaverage (CGA) of 70 percent through-out his or her academic career in orderto receive a Global University degree ordiploma. If after 16 credits (the unit ofcredit being the semester hour) the stu-dent has not maintained the requiredaverage, the student will be warned andput on academic probation for the next16 credits of study.

If after 32 credits the student has notmaintained the required average, thestudent will be warned and will berequired to read and sign a statementacknowledging that he or she musteither raise his or her GPA/CGA to therequired average or not qualify toreceive a Global University degree ordiploma. The issuance of this statementwill release Global University from anyobligation to provide the degree ordiploma apart from the completed ful-fillment of the university’s stated crite-ria. The student will not be permittedto enroll in any additional coursesunless he or she signs and returns saidstatement.

Since academic probation is a remedialaction, individuals placed on academicprobation may receive personal coun-seling from a Global University aca-demic adviser to explore possible rea-sons and/or solutions to the student’sacademic performance.

WHAT YOU CAN DO IF YOU DONOT PASS A COURSEGlobal University is committed to thegoal of fostering a high level of successin learning on the part of each student.The course materials are designed toenhance the possibility of success forstudents who carefully follow theinstructional sequences given and com-plete all learning exercises according tothe instructions in the study guide. Incases where you do not pass a courseon the first attempt, Global Universitywill permit you to take the followingsteps toward receiving a passing grade:

1. If your final score is less than 69 per-cent, you may request a retake exami-nation within 2 months of receivingyour final grade. Before taking the sec-ond examination, carefully review thecourse materials and attempt to correctlearning inadequacies.

2. If you fail to earn a passing scorethrough a re-examination, and youdesire to take the exam a third time,you will have to enroll in the courseagain and pay the applicable fees toreceive credit.

TIME LIMIT FOR COMPLETING ACOURSEThe time limit for completing a GlobalUniversity undergraduate course is 6 months from the date the order is

46

G l o b a l U n i v e r s i t y

Page 48: 2004 undergrad revised - Global UniversityHigher Education of the State of Missouri. ... Washington, D.C. The Accrediting Commission of the Distance Education and Training Council

processed by Global University.Students are encouraged to completetheir studies within this prescribedlength of time. However, where circum-stances merit, a time extension of up to6 months may be granted. A processingfee will be required for the extension.Additional extensions of time beyondthe 6 months are not permitted.

CREDIT SYSTEMSince academic systems vary fromcountry to country, some students maynot be familiar with the system of cred-its as a measure of progress in an aca-demic program. Global Universityrequires that students complete 128credits to earn a Bachelor of Artsdegree. The Undergraduate CourseTitles and Descriptions section listshow many credits each course is worth.

To standardize credit transfer betweenschools, Global University uses thestandard of study-time equivalencies asone factor in computing the credit valueof its courses. In this system, a credit(sometimes referred to as a semestercredit hour) represents the equivalent of15 hours of formal classroom study,including examinations, plus another30 hours of study outside of the class-room. Therefore, one Global Universitycredit is equivalent to 45 hours of timespent in study by the student.

Global University’s courses are designedto require this standard amount of studyfor the average student. That is, a two-credit course requires 90 hours of studytime and a three-credit course requires135 hours of study time. Of course, theactual time that any individual student

may spend in study will depend on hisor her background preparation for thecourse. Global University also uses thesestudy-time equivalencies as one factor incomputing transfer of credits from otherschools.

THE GRADING SCALEGlobal University undergraduate cours-es are graded according to the follow-ing numerical scale:

90–100% (Excellent)80–89% (Above Average)70–79% (Average)60–69% (Below Average)59% or less (Unacceptable)

The minimum passing score for anyindividual course is 60 percent. Acumulative grade average (CGA) of allGlobal University course work attempt-ed will be maintained. A minimumCGA of 70 percent is required to earn adiploma or to graduate.

NOTE: Students who do not achieve a70 percent CGA after completing 16credits will be warned and placed onprobation. After 32 credits of coursework, the student with a low CGA maybe placed on restriction and required toread and sign a statement acknowledg-ing that he or she must either raise theCGA to 70 percent or not qualify toreceive a Global University degree ordiploma. This statement will releaseGlobal University from any obligationto provide the degree or diploma apartfrom the complete fulfillment of theuniversity’s stated criteria.

SCHOLASTIC HONORSTo encourage excellence and high aca-demic achievement by Global Universitystudents, the following categories ofscholastic honors are recognized for stu-dents enrolled in the degree program. Inorder to qualify for any of the categories,a student must complete a minimum offour courses in one academic calendaryear (September through August).

President’s Honor Roll 4.00Dean’s List 3.50 to 3.99Honor Roll 3.20 to 3.49

Graduation honors are awarded foracademic work performed by the stu-dent during his or her undergraduateprogram with Global University. Thebaccalaureate degree will be conferredas follows:

Summa Cum Laude 3.90 or above Magna Cum Laude 3.75 to 3.89Cum Laude 3.60 to 3.74

The grade point calculation is made onall credits earned from GlobalUniversity through specific enrollmentin degree-level courses. In the case oftransfer students, at least 64 creditsmust be earned from Global Universitythrough specific enrollment in degree-level courses in order to qualify forgraduation honors.

DELTA EPSILON TAU INTERNA-TIONAL HONOR SOCIETYTo recognize the academic achievementsof students who study at a distance, theDistance Education and TrainingCouncil (DETC) Board of Trustees offi-cially established the Delta Epsilon Tau

Honor Society (DET). DET membershipbrings honor and earned recognition toindividuals who have worked diligentlyto acquire new knowledge and skillsfrom an accredited distance-learninginstitution. The fact that an individual iselected to membership sets her or himapart from other students and clearlydemonstrates a serious commitment todistance education and self-study.

The requirement for membership in theGlobal University chapter is graduationfrom a degree or diploma program witha minimum 93 percent cumulativegrade average (CGA). As a graduatewith a CGA of 93 percent or above, anindividual is typically in the top 1 per-cent of Global University graduates.Each member receives a personalizedCertificate of Membership and theDelta Epsilon Tau Gold Key ofDistinction. Professionally die struck,sandblasted, and polished, each GoldKey bears the Greek letters DET andtwo of the finest words in any lan-guage—Integrity and Excellence. Inaddition, each outstanding graduatereceives a special narrative about theHonor Society and a personal letter ofcongratulations from the President ofDelta Epsilon Tau.

TRANSFER OF GLOBAL UNIVERSITY CREDITGlobal University graduates have beenaccepted into graduate programs in anumber of institutions in the UnitedStates and elsewhere. However, it is thestudent’s responsibility to verify theapplicability of Global University’scredits toward any educational goal heor she may have.

Qualified faculty develop GlobalUniversity study guides in cooperationwith the university’s instructional devel-opment staff. Learning-teaching princi-ples derived from educational researchare incorporated into the design ofGlobal University instructional materi-als. More than 80 degree courses arenow available for study. The GlobalUniversity curriculum is under constantevaluation. Revisions and additions willbe made in keeping with the goal ofproviding the best possible learningexperiences for Global University stu-dents.

DEFINITION OF COURSE ANDSUBJECTGlobal University uses the terms courseand subject interchangeably. For exam-ple, The Gospel of John is a three-credit degree program course or sub-ject. Courses (subjects) are the funda-mental units of the curriculum.

Satisfactory completion of a program isrecognized by the awarding of certaincertificates, diplomas, or degrees.

Although Global University does notuse a standard semester for enrollment,for international transfer its credits areconsidered as semester credit hours. Ina traditional semester system, a three-credit course would require three one-hour lectures per week for at least 15weeks. A full-time study programwould be equivalent to 15–18 creditsper semester. For VA/DANTES studentsdesiring full-time status, a minimum of18 credit hours per 6 months isrequired.

COURSE SEQUENCES AND PREREQUISITESGlobal University courses are dividedinto lower and upper levels. Lower-levelcourses are those that are designed tobe taken without regard to any particu-

lar sequence. Upper-level courses haveeither a prerequisite or recommendedprevious study and require a higherlevel of academic rigor. If a prerequisiteis required or a certain sequence is sug-gested, a notation is made in the coursedescription. For example, BIB4014Greek I must be taken before BIB4024Greek II.

THE NUMBERING SYSTEM FORUNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMCOURSESA key to the interpretation of coursenumbers follows. The course numbersshould be used with the subject nameson all order forms, subject enrollmentcards (SECs), and other academicrecords.

1. The first three letters indicate theacademic content area of the course.BIB = BibleTHE = TheologyMIN = Christian MinistryMIS = MissionsBUS = BusinessCOM = CommunicationsCSC = Computer ScienceEDU = EducationENG = EnglishGSC = General ScienceHIS = HistoryHSC = Health ScienceLDR = Leadership & ManagementLIT = LiteratureMTH = MathematicsMUS = MusicPHL = Philosophy & EthicsPSY = PsychologyREL = ReligionSOC = SociologySPN = Spanish

2. The first digit indicates the level ofthe course.

3. The second and third digits serve asnumerical identifiers.

4. The final digit indicates the creditvalue.An example is BIB1043 The Gospelof John. The letters identify thecourse as part of the Bible contentarea (see BIB****), and the firstdigit indicates the level (BIB1***), orfirst level. The final digit indicatesthat the credit value of this course isthree credit hours (BIB1043).

USING YOUR GLOBAL UNIVERSITY STUDY GUIDEGlobal University uses three course for-mats. One format uses a study guidebased on a textbook. In this format thestudy guide integrates readings in thetextbook throughout the study. Othercourses utilize study guides that do notreference an external textbook. Thesestudy guides are referred to as independent-study textbooks. A thirdapproach involves the independent-study textbook along with specifiedoutside readings and written assign-ments based on them, which is called acollateral reading assignment (CRA).

Global University’s independent-studytextbook and study guide formats aredesigned to provide you with directionthroughout your course. In fact, it is a“teaching book.” Naturally, the style is

more formal, since it is in written ratherthan spoken language. However, a seri-ous attempt has been made to commu-nicate by the written word the kind ofexperience you would find in a collegeor university classroom.

COMPLETING THE COURSE WORKYou should expect to spend an averageof 6 to 8 hours of study per lesson.Preparation for exams and the researchand writing of papers will vary accord-ing to the abilities of the student. Youhave 6 months from the date the enroll-ment is processed in which to completea course. However, the time spent tocomplete a course is determined solelyby the student. It is important to have athorough understanding of each lessonbefore you proceed to the next one. Theself-test at the end of each lesson willhelp you evaluate your mastery of the

It is important thatyou develop a schedule to determinewhich 2 hours each day you will spendin study. Then be sure not to let anyother activity keep you from your “col-lege schedule.” Treat these 2 hours asfaithfully as you would a residentialclass at a university.

THE ORGANIZATION OF EACHLESSONEach course is generally divided intoseveral units. These units are dividedinto lessons. Each lesson has three parts.The first section is the lesson organizer,which overviews the lessons, states thelesson objectives, identifies key words,and defines learning activities. Lessondevelopment is the largest part of eachlesson and contains the major part ofthe instruction. Lesson development isdivided into approximately 8–14 blocksof content. Each of these blocks ofstudy is preceded by an objective andfollowed by study questions. The objec-tives in the lesson development and themore general lesson objectives are vitalto the study process since they form thecriteria by which all questions on theunit tests and final exams are written.The final section of each lesson is theself-test. This is a quiz of approximately10–12 questions that reviews eachobjective stated in the lesson develop-ment. The self-tests are designed to helpyou achieve the objectives of each les-son. The entire lesson should require 6to 8 hours of study.

TEXT AND READING ASSIGNMENTSGlobal University courses have twomethods for directing the student tooutside reading assignments. If a text-book is directly integrated to the studyplan of the Global University course,the assigned reading will be given in thelesson organizer or throughout thestudy guide. This makes it easy to studythe material thoroughly as you proceed.Studying a section at a time, first inyour textbook and then in your studyguide, will make it possible for you totake advantage of short periods ofstudy time. You will not need to waituntil you have time to do a whole les-son at once.

Another method of providing outsidereading is the combination of a two-credit course with a collateral readingassignment (CRA). In this method thestudent studies the Global Universitycourse completely and then is directedto read an outside text or texts onwhich he or she will make a writtenreport called a CRA. This assignmentwill add one credit to the credit valueof the course. When requesting a coursefor which a CRA is available, alwaysspecify whether you are enrolling in thetwo-credit or three-credit version of thecourse. Once a three-credit courseenrollment has been processed, a stu-dent cannot opt to omit the CRA anddowngrade to the two-credit course.

METHODS OF INSTRUCTIONGlobal University uses a variety ofmethods to meet the needs of its stu-dents at all levels of study. GlobalUniversity students have included pas-tors, evangelists, and national churchleaders wishing to continue their minis-terial education, as well as thosepreparing to enter the ministry for thefirst time. Global University studentsalso include laypersons who wish tohave the training necessary to workmore effectively in the local church.

Many Global University students studyindependently, but Global Universityalso works closely with residence Bibleschools for the benefit of their students.Global University endeavors to selectthe methods appropriate for each typeof learning situation.

The following are some of the waysstudents may study with GlobalUniversity:

1. Independent Study: Independent-study students are those who study athome while maintaining their regularroutines of ministry, employment,and family responsibilities. Usually,they will study alone in a personallydeveloped schedule that enables themto minimize the disruption of theirother activities and responsibilities.Global University courses are specifi-cally designed to meet the needs ofindependent-study students. Thepresence of an instructor is notrequired; however, an examiningsupervisor must administer the finalexamination.

2. Guided Independent Study: In thismode, a facilitator meets regularlywith the student to guide and encour-age his or her study. The facilitatormay also serve as the examiningsupervisor for the final examination.

3. Seminar Courses: From time to time,Global University conducts on-loca-tion teaching sessions (seminars) inconjunction with the program of aGlobal University director or resi-dential Bible school. Seminars pro-vide an opportunity to interact with

other students and an instructorwhile studying course materials.

4. Study Groups: Many Bible studygroups use Global University cours-es. These include church Bible studygroups and citywide Bible studyprojects. Such groups usually takethe form of classes with active direc-tion from a facilitator, pastor, orother group leader. Or, a study groupmay be simply a place where stu-dents can study together with sometutorial assistance.

5. Global University/Residence BibleSchool: Global University encouragesthe use of its instructional materialsby residence Bible schools. Althoughprimarily designed for independentstudy, Global University study mate-rials are adaptable to classroom use.

6. Videoconference Instruction: GlobalUniversity is offering live, synchro-nous, two-way videoconferencecourses to qualified sites globally.The courses are delivered in eitherpoint-to-point or multipoint video-conference sessions. Students studythe course materials prior to theclass session. During the class, theCourse Facilitator reviews the con-tent, then discusses and clarifiesquestions students bring up. GlobalUniversity’s goal is to use videocon-ference instruction to help studentsapply course content through care-fully selected learning activities andimmediate feedback.

7. Online Courses: Global University isin the process of developing allundergraduate programs for Internet

delivery. These online courses will beidentical to the print-based coursesin content but with additional inter-activity built in. To find out whichcourses are currently available, con-tact the International EnrollmentOffice at [email protected] see our web site athttp://www.globaluniversity.edu.Students residing outside of the U.S.should note that online courseenrollments cannot be processed orserviced through Global University’snational offices.

ONLINE RESEARCH CENTERGlobal University provides its studentsand faculty with a unique onlineresource called the Online ResearchCenter (ORC).
