Theology courses play a central role in the spiritual and academic growth of students. Students are encouraged to enroll in or audit a variety of theology courses. A major in theology at WLC is designed for the student who seeks to prepare for personal or professional ministry in the WELS. Surveys of Scripture, biblical studies, systematic theology, and practical theology courses are combined to provide a solid foundation for a lifetime of learning and Christian service. A student who chooses a theology major will generally be advised to seek an additional major in his or her bachelor program.
To have a major in theology approved for graduation, a student must have a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.50 in courses selected by the student to satisfy the major.
