Indiana Bible College (IBC) is a Bible college endorsed by the United Pentecostal Church International (UPCI).[1]
Overview
[edit]Founded in 1981 by Rev. Dennis Croucher of Seymour, Indiana, United States, it relocated to Indianapolis in 1988 under Pastor Paul Mooney and Calvary Tabernacle of Indianapolis, Indiana.
The campus is at the former University Heights Hospital at 1502 East Sumner Avenue site, 1 km from University Heights.
Academics
[edit]Indiana Bible College (IBC) focuses on preparing students for careers in professional ministry. The college offers Associate of Arts and Bachelor of Arts programs in Biblical Studies, Christian Leadership, Missiology, and Worship Studies with academic minors in the same. Concentrations include studies in education, church marketing, counseling, and preaching. IBC provides leadership across the United Pentecostal Church International in every area of church ministry. It offers on-site courses, night classes, a large External Studies program, and Spanish course offerings at the main campus.
None of the degrees that are offered have been accredited by any higher accreditation agencies. However, IBC credits routinely transfer to institutions of higher learning (e.g., Urshan Graduate School of Theology, the accredited seminary of the UPCI, accepts degrees from IBC because their accrediting agency considers IBC equivalent to an accredited institution).
Campus life
[edit]Students are able to participate in different organizations. The library has around 20,000 volumes, a rare book room, and students can access scholarly and practical periodicals.
