Bachelor Degrees

The School of Professional Studies offers the Bachelor of Science degree in three majors:

  • Christian Leadership

    The Christian Leadership major aims at equipping mid-career / in-service adults to improve their leadership perspectives and skills. This learning may be applied in a church, para-church or marketplace context.
  • Business Administration

    The Business Administration major provides an in-service program to equip working adults to manage effectively a business, non-profit or a public service agency from an ethical perspective. It also provides a solid base for moving into a graduate-level study program.
  • Counseling Psychology

    A growing need exists for workers in the helping professions in both secular and sacred settings. Earning the Counseling Psychology degree will prepare you for work in these professions and post-graduate education. Completing your Bachelor's degree will open a whole new world of professional and financial opportunity for you.

To complete the degrees requires a minimum of 128 applicable semester units: 52 general education units, 28 elective units and 48 units in the major.

The purpose of the General Education units are to demonstrate a broad range of knowledge, which provides the base for a well-educated citizen. These courses should be completed before starting the major. The academic program is set for each major and follows a prescribed sequence. The sequence is listed below. Students admitted to the School of Professional Studies with less than 60 applicable units are admitted as Bridge students.

Students who are working to meet the entrance requirements for their chosen major or seeking to complete requirements for graduation are encouraged to enroll in the Bridge program. Bridge classes are scheduled in a manner consistent with Major courses, allowing students to complete all their degree requirements at WJU in a time effective and continuous manner.
