Bachelor of Chaplaincy

A Bachelor of chaplaincy degree can be a great asset for those interested in pursuing a career in institutional chaplaincy. Institutional chaplains work in various settings such as hospitals, prisons, military and other institutions to provide spiritual care and support to individuals. A bachelor's degree program provides students with the knowledge and skills necessary to serve as effective institutional chaplains. The Bachelor of chaplaincy degree also exposes students to ethical considerations that arise in institutional settings. Ethics plays an important role in institutional chaplaincy since some situations require making hard decisions that could impact people's lives. As part of the curriculum, students learn about professional boundaries and confidentiality requirements that guide their practice.
