On April 20, 2015 Baptist Bible College & Seminary was renamed Summit University. Although the name has changed, the institution's mission, doctrine, and dedication to providing students with a quality biblical education remains the same.〔http://www.summitu.edu/about/news-events/news-press-releases/news/introducing-summit-university〕 A full range of academic degrees are offered at the undergraduate and graduate levels. These include a high-school dual enrollment option, one-year Bible certificate, as well as associate’s, bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral degrees. Programs are offered on-campus and through online distance learning.〔http://www.summitu.edu/academics/index〕 Annual enrollment is more than 1,100. About 43% of undergraduates are drawn from Pennsylvania. Roughly 56% are from 29 other states, with about 1% from outside the United States. The college employs 36 full-time faculty members (22 hold doctorates), as well as part-time and adjunct faculty. Additionally, nine full-time faculty members, all of whom hold doctorates, serve in the Seminary. ==History== The school was founded in 1932 in Johnson City, New York. For its first 36 years, the college used the facilities of First Baptist Church in Johnson City. Additional buildings were purchased or built to accommodate the growing student body. A steady growth of enrollment by the 1960s prompted school leaders to search for a new location. In 1968, a site in Clarks Summit was found with the help of Gov. William Scranton. Baptist Bible Seminary began classes in 1972. Graduate studies began in 1989. On April 20, 2015 Baptist Bible College & Seminary was renamed Summit University.〔http://www.summitu.edu/about/news-events/news-press-releases/news/introducing-summit-university〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Summit University」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
