The Department of Biblical Studies

The Biblical Studies Department at York College is committed to building a foundation of literacy and preparation for ministry. Whether your post-grad goals are graduate school or entering ministry, you can rest assured that you will be well prepared .

Our faculty members provide students solid biblical preparation, an understanding of humankind, and encouragement to begin the thoughtful pursuit of truth. Faith and learning are integrated in each course to prepare students for life--not just their professions. 
​
Students can also get involved through York College Campus Ministries for hands on ministry experience.  An internship with a cooperating church or ministry organization will be a vital part of your studies.
