Doctor of Christian Business Administration

The Doctor of Christian Business Administration is a 2-year program/60 credits, offering pastors, missionaries, and other leaders an opportunity for professional and personal growth. This is a 60-credits postgraduate degree that exposes the postgraduate student to advanced coursework and thesis with a focus on mega-Christian businesses and mega-churches. This course is designed for Christian leaders and experienced business people to expand their knowledge, good judgment, skills, attitude, and experience and to look in-depth at a major Christian organizational issue.

The program includes eight (8) pre-determined core courses, 3 practica and a Doctoral dissertation and six elective courses that every student can select from a list of courses offered by the School of Business theology at the Open Christian University based on their own missions. For purposes of this elective course, every student may opt for any combination of graduate-level elective courses offered by the School of Business Theology at Open Christian University, choosing from any one of four academic concentrations: Christian entrepreneurship, Christian Education, Workplace Ministry and Church leadership.

Every course has an emphasis on ethical business behaviour and conduct as well as responsible business practices in an increasingly pluralistic, global society. As with our other programs, there is a strong emphasis on Biblical values and Theological education. Courses in the Business major will be taught through the lenses of Christian principles.
