| School mission: | Cedarville University is a Christ-centered Baptist University of arts, sciences, and professional and graduate programs. Since its founding, Cedarville has coupled a balanced liberal arts program with a conservative theological position in regard to doctrine and patterns of conduct. All classes are taught by dedicated Christian professors who integrate the knowledge of their respective fields with biblical perspectives. In keeping with the liberal arts concept, the undergraduate curriculum centers on a basic program of general studies including biblical education, communications, global studies, humanities, physical education, science and mathematics, and social sciences.
