Objectives<br />
The objectives of the undergraduate department of Intercultural<br />
Studies are five-fold:<br />
1. To enable students to demonstrate a knowledge and understanding<br />
of the theological, historical, sociological, anthropological<br />
and linguistic issues of the crosscultural communication<br />
of the gospel<br />
2. To enable students to demonstrate a personal responsibility<br />
to the mandate given by the Lord Jesus Christ to make<br />
disciples of every nation based on an understanding of both<br />
human beings and culture<br />
3. To equip Christian professionals to serve in a broad range of<br />
vocations<br />
4. To facilitate the growth of Christ-like character and assist<br />
students in their spiritual formation<br />
5. To increase student understanding of linguistic and cultural<br />
diversity, so that they will relate more meaningfully to people<br />
with a different linguistic and cultural background and be<br />
encouraged to analyze and develop Christian perspectives<br />
toward crosscultural problems.<br />
The careers open to Intercultural Studies majors are diverse, and<br />
include such areas as missions outreach, crosscultural health services,<br />
development programs and agencies, social welfare, translation<br />
work, information research, bilingual and multicultural education,<br />
crosscultural communications and public and foreign service.<br />
The Intercultural Studies major is designed to allow students to pursue<br />
options which will best prepare them for their career objectives.<br />
The interdisciplinary concentration offers a unique opportunity to<br />
combine Intercultural Studies with other disciplines in the <strong>University</strong><br />
to prepare the student for careers such as bicultural education,<br />
crosscultural mass media communications, social work, crosscultural<br />
counseling, missions political liaison, urban program administration<br />
and international business.<br />
