"While God's glory is written all over his work, in the wilderness the letters are capitalized" - Roderick Nash

The Bachelor of Science in Outdoor Leadership prepares students for careers in or related to the outdoor industry. According to the Outdoor Industry Association, outdoor recreation generates $689 billion in consumer spending and 4.3 million direct jobs. Students will develop a strong, Bible-based foundation in their skills and leadership to prepare them for this vast industry. We accomplish this by taking CLASS outside to pursue these goals:

Character Formation
Leadership Development
Authentic Community
Skills Acquisition
Spiritual Transformation

Through these, students will develop their own theology of outdoor leadership in the context of a Christian worldview throughout the 4 year program. By choosing from a wide array of minors, students will gain knowledge and experience in an area of concentration depending on their career goals.

The Outdoor Leadership Major requires completion of the following 120 credits:
General Education (48 credit hours)
Outdoor Leadership Major Core (45 credit hours)
General Electives (27 credit hours - may be used to satisfy a minor)
