ABOUT THE COURSE
The "School of Government and Economics" started in 2021 as a 12-week course, and it is granted 12 credits by the University of The Nations. However, and for the sake of those who cannot attend a school out of their country of origin for 12 weeks, we have offered different versions -from extension courses, to seminars- that keep the Biblical content and the section dedicated to a review of the global perspective. In that way the students always get a holistic vision of both spheres offered in the Bible, a national model, and the opportunity to understand and discern the ways of the humanistic global order.
The SGE belongs to the College of Humanities and International Studies of the University of the Nations. A certificate of completion is given to those who successfully fulfill all the academic requirements. There is also opportunity to attend as hearer during the sessions, for which it is also necessary to apply as regular students do. Hearers will not receive a certificate.
The content of the school is completely biblical and leads the students into the Nation Building process offered in the Bible from Genesis 1 to the book of Joshua, where the practical implementation of the social model of the OT takes place. The students leave the school having understood there is such a model that offers a vision of politics and economics in Biblical coherence.
The UNIVERSITY OF THE NATIONS (UofN) is the educational arm of Youth With a Mission International, a highly decentralized international movement of Christians from many denominations dedicated to presenting the person of Jesus Christ to this generation and to training and equipping many believers in that endeavor. The UofN is unique in its international missionary training scope with school locations in more than 170 nations and at 600 locations on 6 continents. Because national accrediting agencies have major differences in their systems, the UofN has not, at this present time, applied for any one nation’s accreditation.
