Graduate Course Syllabus

Online Graduate Course Syllabi with Required Texts

Moody Bible Institute Online endeavors to maintain accurate and current syllabus information on this website. Each format type links to the current course syllabus. The syllabus contains all textbooks and materials required for each course. Syllabus and textbook information is kept as up-to-date and accurate as possible but may change without notice. Moody cannot be responsible for textbooks ordered more than 30 days prior to the start of a given session.

Purchase of electronic versions of textbooks is permitted, as long as the electronic edition is the same as the required print text. Please keep in mind that page numbers may differ between the print and electronic versions of a textbook.

Some titles may be available as eBooks through the Moody library website. Be sure to check there before making your purchases if you so desire.

Moody Bible Institute is fully accredited and all online Bible and Theology courses qualify for ACSI certification. View the Moody Bible Institute Online general course offerings list on the learning venue page for the anticipated schedule of classes.
