SO WHAT KIND OF UNIVERSITY IS BICU?

It is a Christian university that is:

  1. Centered on the gospel as articulated in what God has done outside of humanity in the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
  2. Has love as its core value.
  3. A research-based institution that educates learners to think as scholars.
  4. Has very high academic standards.
  5. Speaks to the social, spiritual, and economic ills of society; as such, most programs of study will incorporate content in economics, sociology, political science, and ethics.
  6. Adjusts its offerings, as far a possible to meet the diverse educational needs of learners.
  7. Multi-ethnic, multi-racial, non-denominational yet multi-denominational Christ-focused institution.

 

The growth is now in progress to these ends, and you are invited to participate in this exciting journey. Remember, the real pleasure and satisfaction of the destination is in the journey. I welcome your prayers and financial support.
