 FAQs

  • ll majors at ABU are double majors with Bible. This will equip you with a strong moral foundation, critical thinking skills, and a biblical worldview that will guide your decisions and interactions in any profession. It helps you integrate faith into your work, communicate effectively, and approach challenges with integrity and wisdom. 

  • While there are some similarities between General Studies and Interdisciplinary Studies and General Studies, they are different in one key aspect – the area of academic concentrations. Interdisciplinary Studies majors at ABU are asked to choose two academic concentrations that complement each other, such as Business and Sports Management, and will equip them with a well-rounded skillset to succeed in the workforce after graduation. In contrast to this, General Studies degrees typically require two concentrations, but they do not have to be related to one another. 

  • In short; anything you can imagine. Our Interdisciplinary Studies graduates are equipped to pursue a wide variety of careers based on what they, themselves, studied and pursued while attending ABU. Graduates have gone on to pursue careers in areas such as nursing, sports management, coaching, business management/marketing, ministry, and many more.
