Academics at LBC

Offering Many Avenues on Your Educational Journey

The college experience encompasses many avenues, pathways and areas of growth. But, ultimately, it’s all centered on learning.

At LBC | Capital, we strongly believe that the Bible must be central in both our name and our academic curriculum, from undergraduate through graduate education. The Bible, the written Word of God, is the divinely inspired source for all truth and, as such, holds God’s instructions for thinking and living a biblical worldview, which is at the heart of LBC’s mission.

From associate to doctoral degrees, our academic programs integrate content from the Bible, theology and the arts & sciences across every professional area of study. We are confident this integrated approach to academics is the best means to fulfill our mission to educate Christian students to think and live a biblical worldview and to proclaim Christ by serving Him in the Church and society.

On-Campus

On-campus undergraduate students can earn their degrees in class on our Lancaster campus.

Online

We know that students at all levels can thrive on a path of online education. Flexible 8-week programs allow students to learn and grow alongside peers and professors.
