At an undergraduate level, the Avondale Seminary offers a four-year Bachelor of Theology/Bachelor of Ministry, a three-year Bachelor of Theology, and a two-year Associate Degree in Theological Studies. These courses provide students with a foundation for ministry and resources with which to minister. The staff of the Seminary are deeply committed to the gospel of Jesus Christ and equipping men and women for church ministry. Both the Bachelor of Theology/Bachelor of Ministry and the concurrent Graduate Diploma in Theology and Ministry are designed to prepare graduates for ministry in the Seventh-day Adventist Church. In addition, individual units may be taken by interested lay persons and professionals as single, non-award units for Lifelong Learning credit. The degrees also provide a foundation for further reflection and advanced study.
