| Mission | |
| School mission: | Going to college is about much more than earning a degree, or at least it should be. At Bethel, we want our students to become truly educated: to understand, with depth and insight, the world and their place in it. Students find that Bethel is rigorous, driving them to think deeply and to work diligently, taking into account their particular strengths and goals. You will learn to evaluate ideas, to draw on ethics and values and to discern among theories and judgments you encounter every day. It can be challenging, but Bethel offers the resources you need to succeed. Bethel offers a true education in another powerful way as well. Our mission as a Christian college of the arts and sciences is to foster spiritual insight, growth and commitment. Faith gives fuller dimension to the learning that takes place here. You can see the whole picture. You can know the truth. As a Christian college of the arts and sciences, Bethel can provide you with skills you will use throughout your lifetime: effective communication, resourceful problem solving, solid teamwork and critical thinking. The solid preparation built into a Bethel education means that students in every program enjoy exceptional success as they pursue their career or graduate school. Bethel offers more than 50 areas of study, from traditional to cutting-edge, so students are able to study what they love and put it to use in the real world. An extensive internship program allows you to gain valuable experience prior to graduation. Students at Bethel quickly learn that their college education is not limited to the four walls of the classroom. Bethel offers educational opportunities across the country and around the world. Such opportunities include the American Studies Program in Washington, DC; Au Sable Institute of Environmental Studies in Michigan and Florida; the Pacific Rim Program in Australia, New Zealand, and China; and the Los Angeles Film Studies Center in California. Bethel's campus is home to a variety of community-focused ministries, including tutoring children, building houses, feeding the hungry and the annual Work Day, which serves the Mishawaka/South Bend community. If students have a heart for missions, they can join a Task Force Team and reach out to others in places around the world such as Romania, Ecuador, and Russia. Mishawaka/South Bend, an active residential community in Northern Indiana, is an excellent location for your education. Beautiful new buildings blend gracefully on our campus, which features stately oaks and cascading fountains. You will enjoy the safety and serenity of an established suburban setting. We are located in the third largest metro area in the state, so you can also find big-city advantages within easy reach. Chicago is just 90 miles away. You can pursue a great internship or job at a major business, health care facility, church, social service agency or governmental office, all easily accessible from campus. |
