Elective Courses – 12 Credit Hours Required
Four additional courses must be taken to complete the required 30 semester hours. Those courses may be from any of the other courses in the program the student has not taken but wants to take because the courses will help in his or her ministry and ministry plans. If a student wishes, he or she can take MMOL 639 Ministry Project. This course must be arranged through the Program Director at least one term before the student desires to take the course. The student must have a definite plan for a ministry project and a professor must be available to direct the project.
