 Welcome to Philadelphia Biblical University! I trust that you will be encouraged by what you find here. It is our hope that you will explore the pages of our site and gain a perspective on what it is that sets PBU apart and makes this a great place to study and learn. Ours is an educational institution with a rich history, a clear vision, a quality academic program, and a timely mission because we live in an age that questions the notion of truth and has marginalized the Bible, which is God’s true Word. Despite this, we also live in a world that has serious questions, serious problems, and serious needs. This current state of affairs demands people who can provide answers, offer solutions, and both demonstrate and proclaim the love and truth of Christ.
Students here at PBU are prepared to do just that. Today, as they have since 1913, graduates from this institution are making a contribution around the world by taking their places in the church, society, and the world as biblically minded, well-educated, and professionally competent servants of the Lord Jesus Christ. This is the truest measure of our success. The lives of those who have studied here testify to the fulfillment of a vision for providing a distinctly and thoroughly biblical education that prepares men and women to make a difference.
Studying here, students are challenged with regard to their personal, intellectual, professional, and spiritual development by a faculty and staff that is deeply committed to Christ and the mission and vision of the University. While there are a number of programs and courses of study at PBU, we believe that all learning begins with and is held together by biblical learning. The study of the Bible then is central to all academic endeavors at PBU and is integrated throughout the curriculum. Additionally, because we believe that all truth is God’s truth, we expect our students to become learned persons who seek knowledge and wisdom with rigor and enthusiasm. Finally, because possessing this kind of knowledge and wisdom requires the application of it in tangible service, PBU purposes to educate students professionally and make them ready for whatever vocational opportunities the Lord provides.
We trust as you navigate our site you will find it to be helpful and informative. We are excited about your interest in PBU. Whether you are seeking a graduate or undergraduate course of study, or simply want to know more about our institution, take a close look and you will see the PBU difference. We are also pleased to answer any other questions you might have so please feel free to contact us at any time.
