Structure and Delivery
The MDiv, BT Concentration will be undertaken at one of PBA’s campus as well as one of our partner institutions abroad. Students will normally study for one calendar year as a PBA study abroad student, through the Rinker Center for Experiential Learning (RCEL), in an international university in either their penultimate or final year of the MDiv. To participate in this program, students must be accepted to the partner school and be accepted by the RCEL. During their time abroad, students will have the opportunity to study linguistics and translation techniques as well as being immersed in an international context.
