Undergraduate Programs Supported Associate in Arts, Business Management, Interdisciplinary Studies, Ministry Leadership, Organizational Leadership, Psychology

The Northwest Partnership Program (NPP) is birthed from NU’s deep respect for the powerful influence of the local church and likeminded nonprofits, to effect change in our world. Both the church and university are far more effective when coordinating their efforts as a team than individually to fulfill Christ’s mandate to be change-makers. Together we aim to deliver superb, engaged online education in community contexts to every organization within our reach.

Undergraduate

Associate in Arts

This two-year program includes the major components of the General Education Requirements which is general and foundational in nature, with several electives that allow students flexibility to explore other areas of study. 

Business Management

This program focuses on the knowledge and skills necessary to function within, and lead, business in today’s changing environment. This major includes the important aspects of statistics, finance, and accounting. 

Interdisciplinary Studies

This major offers an individually designed major option for students who wish to create a program of study by combining selected courses from two or more majors. Students identify a central organizing theme of their Interdisciplinary Studies major and design it under the guidance and supervision of an Interdisciplinary Studies advisor. 

Ministry Leadership

The Certificate, Associate, and Bachelor of Ministry leadership programs prepare individuals for service within the church and the broad fields of ministry outside of establish churches. 

Organizational Leadership

The BA in Organizational Leadership focuses on the personal characteristics and professional competencies needed for success and career advancement within their chosen vocation and/or place of employment. Organizational Leadership draws from a cross-section of disciplines with the common focus of practical application in today’s highly mobile and demanding workforce. 

Psychology

The Psychology major prepares individuals for entry-level post-baccalaureate occupations including work in human services across cultural settings, and for graduate work in the social sciences.
