focus is the reality in which contemporary discipleship increasingly takes place, and Carey
is changing the shape of education to better
address this shift in educational patterns. The
local presentation of contextualized and applied learning, coupled with a sound academic
foundation, is the unique shape of theological
education through Carey.
Carey’s new Master of Divinity degree is
a sharp and focused 72-credit-hour program.
The 24 courses are available through various
distributed learning formats; 16 are online and 8
are by modular, intensive and/or hybrid means.
This MDiv program is accessible, practical and
contextual. Clergy or laypeople – choosing to
study while they are employed – should be able
to complete the degree program in about four
years. The unconventional format of the degree
allows students to be part of an academic milieu while remaining within their faith community. Check out our other degrees on the web.

n Christian Studies International
opportunities overseas
Christian Studies International (CSI)
provides opportunities for Christian academics
to teach overseas in public universities and colleges. CSI is the Canadian affiliate of the International Institute for Christian Studies (IICS),
based in Overland Park, Kansas. Together,
these two organizations have placed dozens of
Christian faculty members at post-secondary
institutions in developing and former communist countries, where they are able to provide
students with an education that is rooted in a
Christian worldview. Currently, openings exist in
many countries and in a variety of disciplines.
CSI professors make a tremendous difference in the lives of hundreds of students overseas. Professors teaching with CSI must raise
some of their own support for travel as well as
partial salary. Often, the host university provides
some salary, housing and other amenities. CSI
will assist the professor in raising the necessary
funds from churches, friends and supporters.
Donations for this purpose are channelled
through CSI, which provides tax receipts.
People with the appropriate academic
qualifications who are interested in making
use of this opportunity to bring the good news
of the gospel in places where this may seldom
be heard should consult the CSI website
at www.christianstudiesinternational.ca, or
contact CSI at csidesk@telus.net.
