BSWE seeks to provide quality education and training with a balance between academics and practical involvement within the following six specified skill areas:

• Theology
• Spiritual Disciplines
• Cross-cultural Skills
• Biblical Languages
• Linguistics
• Bible Translation

Students wanting to get an idea of the training offered at BSWE may want to consider participation in a modular course or a field course.  Both of these are highlighted each semester on the website under the "Students" link and the items "Calendar" and "Modular Courses."  These are both short-term opportunities for involvement for those unable to enroll immediately on a semester basis.  Often, students make their decision to enroll on a semester basis after participation in one of these formats of instruction.
