DescThe School of Arts and Sciences aims to teach the connectedness of all knowledge, helping students explore a wide range of disciplines and the contributions that each can make to a student's understanding. From a Biblical worldview, we seek to challenge students to explore and develop knowledge, skills, and attributes that will enable them to understand, express, care for, and celebrate God's diverse and complex world; that in it they might seek and humbly serve the kingdom of God. Beyond the classroom, our students learn experientially, connecting their studies to the contexts of life that they might love their neighbors in the places and positions beyond Biola where God may lead them. More than granting degrees, we hope to awaken the joys of learning so that the liberal arts might be a lifelong passion. The School of Science, Technology, and Health Program Description The vision of the School of Science, Technology and Health at Biola University is to equip a new generation of ethically thoughtful professionals in the sciences and health care, grounded in a Christian worldview, educated in an academically rigorous environment, ready to assume positions of leadership, and able to provide the clear moral vision the world desperately needs. In February 2016, Biola University broke ground on the most ambitious building project in its history, the expansive new 91,200 sq. Alton and Lydia Lim Center for Science, Technology, and Health that will serve as the home to the new School of Science, Technology, and Health also formed in 2016. The School is a new consolidation of some of the University's fastest growing, highest demand career opportunities. The building will open in early 2018 and will triple the amount of space devoted to science education at Biola enabling students and faculty to study with cutting-edge equipment and in dedicated state-of-the-art laboratories. The School of Science, Technology, and Health serves approximately 1,100 undergraduate students and 45 graduate students in the following 16 majors housed within 6 Departments: Biology (BIOS): Biological Sciences, B.S.; Biological Science: Secondary Education, B.S.; Environmental Science, B.S.; Human Biology, B.S. Chemistry, Physics, and Engineering (CPE): Biochemistry, B.S.; Chemistry, B.S.; Engineering Physics, B.S.; Physical Science, B.S.; Physics, B.S. Communication Sciences and Disorders (CSD): Speech-Language Pathology, M.S.; Communication Sciences and Disorders, B.S. Kinesiology, Health, and Physical Education (KHPE): Kinesiology, B.S.; Physical Education, B.S. Math and Computer Science (MCS); Computer Science, B.S.; Mathematics, B.S. Nursing (NURS): Nursing, B.S. As highly skilled and technically competent scientists and health care providers, Biola graduates will be prepared to enter the workforce or continue their education in graduate or professional schools impacting the world for Jesus Christ to be employed as health care providers, research scientists, government and corporate scientists, and educators. Students focusing on the Biological and Environmental Sciences at Biola acquire the knowledge and develop the skills that will allow them to study and appreciate God's creation at the organismal and bimolecular level, preparing them for a range of health-related careers. Environmental science is an interdisciplinary field, focusing on solving problems involving people and the rest of God's creation. The environmental science program provides the platform to specialize in graduate programs involving marine and terrestrial flora and fauna, environmental policy, planning, and regulation, management of state and federal lands, and pollution control and waste management. That scientific platform can also be used by those passionate about helping people through sustainable development, environmental missions, organic agriculture and environmental education. The Biological Sciences: Secondary Instruction Program at Biola University is to provide an academically stimulating and challenging environment for intellectual and spiritual growth, preparing students to pursue careers as teachers to make an impact as educators in the secondary classroom. The Human Biology degree focuses on the scientific understanding and specific workings of God's most complex design - the human body. Our program provides rigorous coursework, hands-on-training in well-equipped laboratories and a rich independent research experience. As a Biola human biology graduate, students are served by expert pre-med committee and health profession advisors who provide the knowledge base and skills students need to successfully enter graduate studies and the health care profession. Biola's degrees in Biochemistry and Chemistry offer comprehensive preparation in all the core areas of the chemical and molecular sciences. Students engage in rigorous coursework, hands-on-training with the latest chemical instrumentation, as well as a rich independent research experience. As a Biola chemistry graduate, students are fully prepared to pursue professional careers in the field of chemical and molecular sciences, or to continue towards advanced degrees in chemistry or a related field in the molecular sciences. Students focusing on the physical and chemical sciences, including Engineering, study the practical application of scientific knowledge to improve people's lives. Through Biola's Engineering Physics program, which includes a partnership with the University of Southern California, students receive two baccalaureate degrees - an engineering physics degree from Biola, and an engineering degree from USC or another accredited university. These two degrees will prepare students for careers in a wide range of industries and government agencies. Additionally, Biola's Physics major prepares one for graduate school and for a career in a technology-oriented business, industry or government agency. Around the world, demand is growing for mathematicians with a strong grasp of statistics, operations research, data analysis and problem-solving skills. In Biola's Mathematics major, students receive a strong foundation that prepares them for success in a variety of industries, as well as graduate school or teaching. Technology is transforming our world - including how we do business, how we communicate and what we do for entertainment. In this quickly changing landscape, opportunities abound for people with advanced technological skills. Through Biola's Computer Science major, Biola graduates develop knowledge and abilities to innovate, program, solve problems and succeed across a range of careers. Our bodies are intricately designed. The way we steward them - with exercise, nutrition and medical care - can have profound effects on our physical, emotional and spiritual health. In Biola's Kinesiology major, students receive specialized training in human movement and athletic performance, preparing them to be a competent and caring Christian professional in such fields as teaching, exercise science and allied health care. Exercise and physical activity are vital to our health. But to make sure exercise is effective, safe and fun, we need well-trained experts who understand the science of the human body and how best to coach others. In Biola's Physical Education major, students gain extensive knowledge of health, nutrition, fitness and leadership, preparing them to teach, coach or lead sports-related ministries. Millions of people are impacted by physical and cognitive disorders that affect their ability to communicate. Biola's undergraduate program in Communication Sciences and Disorders and graduate program in Speech-Language Pathology prepares students to serve their needs, providing them with the specialized knowledge and clinical training needed for graduate school and a career in this important field. For Christians, Nursing is an opportunity to model the care and compassion of Jesus to hurting people - sometimes during the most traumatic or trying moments of their lives. In Biola's nursing program, students learn to provide competent nursing care through rigorous coursework, through our skills and simulation labs and through clinical experiences at area hospitals and health care agencies.Desc

DescTalbot School of Theology: The mission of Talbot School of Theology is the development of disciples of Jesus Christ whose thought processes, character, and lifestyles reflect those of our Lord, and who are dedicated to disciple making throughout the world. The theological position of Talbot School of Theology is Christian, Protestant, and theologically conservative. The school is interdenominational by nature and is thoroughly committed to the proclamation of the great historic doctrines of the Christian church. It definitely and positively affirms historic orthodoxy in the framework of an evangelical and premillennial theology that is derived from a grammatical-historical interpretation of the Bible. It earnestly endeavors to make these great doctrinal truths a vital reality in the spiritual life of this present generation. The seminary aims to train students who believe and propagate the great doctrines of the faith as they are summarized in our Articles of Faith and Theological Distinctive. Spiritually, it is the purpose of Talbot to develop in the lives of its students a spiritual life that is in harmony with the great doctrines taught, so that they may grow in the grace as well as in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Specifically, the goal is to educate and graduate students characterized by a commitment to serving Christ, missionary and evangelistic zeal, and a solid knowledge of the Scriptures.

DescRosemead School of Psychology: Rosemead's educational distinctive are its strong professional training orientation and its goal of relating the data and concepts of psychology to those of Christian theology. Since both psychology and theology address the human condition, Rosemead's faculty believes there is a great deal to be gained by an interdisciplinary study of the nature of persons. Consequently, all students take a series of theology courses and integration seminars designed to study the relationship of psychological and theological conceptions of human functioning. This series of courses lengthens Rosemead's doctoral program by approximately one year beyond most four year clinical programs. While recognizing that the disciplines of psychology and theology have some very different data and methodologies, their overlapping content, goals, and principles provide a rich resource for interdisciplinary study. Issues growing out of these overlapping concerns cover a range of topics relating to research, theory and clinical practice. By encouraging this study, Rosemead is attempting to train psychologists with a broad view of human nature that includes sensitivity to the religious dimension of life. Through its interaction with members of the Christian community, Rosemead is also committed to demonstrating the potentially significant contributions an understanding of the data and methods of psychology can make to the Church's role of ministering to the whole person. Students desiring to focus their professional practice on children, couples or families may take an emphasis in Family-Child Psychology. This emphasis requires completion of elective courses in addition to the regular doctoral requirements. Students emphasizing Family-Child Psychology also write their dissertations or doctoral research papers in a family-child area, spend their year-long outpatient practicum in a setting where at least one-half of their work is with children, couples or families, and complete an internship in a setting where at least one-third of their work is with a family-child population. They may also elect other family related courses such as Development of Religious Understanding in Children and Adolescents, and Human Sexuality. At the heart of an effective training program in professional psychology is the opportunity to develop the personal insights and skills necessary for empathic and effective interaction with a wide range of settings and clientele. In order to meet this need, Rosemead has developed a sequence of experiences designed to promote personal growth and competence in interpersonal relationships as well as specific clinical skills. Beginning in their first year of study, students participate in a variety of activities designed to promote professional awareness and personal growth. The first year activities include active training in empathy skills in an on-campus pre-practicum experience. The pre-practicum course consists of exercises to assess and facilitate interpersonal skills, and an initial opportunity for the student to work with a volunteer college client in a helping role. During the second year, all students participate in interpersonal training therapy. As participants, students personally experience some of the growth-producing aspects of interpersonal relationships. In addition, students begin their formal practicum and psychotherapy lab courses in the second year. Students are placed in such professional facilities as outpatient clinics, hospitals, college counseling centers, public schools and community health organizations on the basis of their individual readiness, needs, and interest. These practicum experiences are supervised both by Rosemead's faculty and qualified professionals working in the practicum agencies. In the psychotherapy lab courses, students receive both instruction and supervised experience, offering clinical services from the theoretical orientation of the course. Students elect lab courses from offerings such as Introduction to Child & Adolescent Therapy, Marriage and Family Therapy, Group Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with Children, Gestalt Therapy, and Biofeedback. During the third year most doctoral students take two or three psychotherapy lab courses, work in an adult outpatient practicum setting, and begin individual training therapy. This therapy is designed to give the student first-hand experience in the role of a client and is considered an opportunity for both personal growth and for learning therapeutic principles and techniques. A minimum of 50 hours of individual training therapy is required. Such issues as timing, choice of therapist and specific goals are determined by students in conjunction with their advisors and the Clinical Training Committee. When doctoral students reach their fourth year, most of their time is spent in electives from the therapy, integration, and general psychology courses, advanced practicum assignments, and independent study or research. Students' research culminates in the production of an approved dissertation or doctoral paper. This step-by-step progression in professional training experiences gives the student personal experience with a wide range of personalities in a variety of settings and provides the necessary preparation for a full-time internship during the year of study.Desc

ExplanationBIOLA UNIVERSITY AWARDS BOTH MERIT AND NEED-BASED SCHOLARSHIPS TO STUDENTS AT THE GRADUATE AND UNDERGRADUATE LEVELS. MERIT AWARDS ARE BASED ON ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA SUCH AS ACADEMIC, ATHLETIC, AND MUSIC ABILITIES. THESE TYPICALLY HAVE ACADEMIC OR PARTICIPATION REQUIREMENTS FOR RENEWAL. CONTINUED ELIGIBILITY BASED ON STATED REQUIREMENTS IS MONITORED BY THE FINANCIAL AID OFFICE OR BY THE OFFICE THAT MAKES THE AWARDS. NEED-BASED AWARDS ARE TYPICALLY AWARDED BASED ON SPECIFIC FORMULAS THAT ARE BASED ON AN INSTITUTIONAL OR FEDERAL COST AMOUNT COMBINED WITH THE FEDERAL EFC DETERMINED BY THE FAFSA. CONTINUED ELIGIBILITY IS NORMALLY CONTINGENT ON ONGOING NEED IN SUBSEQUENT YEARS. MOST OF THE GRANTS AND SCHOLARSHIPS AWARDED BY BIOLA ARE FUNDED FROM GENERAL FUNDS; HOWEVER, A PORTION ARE FUNDED FROM RESTRICTED FUNDS THAT HAVE BEEN PROVIDED BY DONORS, AND ARE AWARDED BASED ON THE ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA ESTABLISHED BY THE DONORS. SOME OF THESE FUNDS ARE AWARDED BY VARIOUS CAMPUS DEPARTMENTS, AND SOME THROUGH AN APPLICATION PROCESS ADMINISTERED BY THE FINANCIAL AID OFFICE. THE FINANCIAL AID OFFICE WORKS CLOSELY WITH ACCOUNTING AND FINANCE OFFICES TO MONITOR AVAILABILITY OF FUNDS FROM BOTH THE GENERAL FUND AND RESTRICTED FUND ACCOUNTS.ExplanationTxt
