Manhattan Christian College
Manhattan Christian College (MCC) is an institution of higher learning located in Manhattan, Kansas, USA.[2] Manhattan Christian College was founded in 1927 as Christian Workers University. The name was changed to Manhattan Bible College in 1930. On July 1, 1971, the name was changed to Manhattan Christian College.
MCC is historically affiliated with nondenominational, independent Christian Churches and Churches of Christ of the Restoration Movement. While many of the students and all the professors have a background in the Christian Church/Churches of Christ congregations, students from various denominational backgrounds are encouraged and welcomed.
The school is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission North Central Association of Colleges and Schools[3] and the Association for Biblical Higher Education.[4]
Degree programs
Programs of study include both single and dual-degrees (in cooperation with Kansas State University), as well as an adult degree completion program. The college offers bachelor of arts or science degrees in various ministerial fields. The Leadership Education for Adult Development (LEAD) degree completion program assists individuals interested in management and ethics in business, allowing them to complete a college degree for personal and career development. MCC also offers two degree-completion programs through online distance education.
MCC programs of study can be taken in conjunction with numerous programs at Kansas State University allowing students to earn two bachelor's degrees in five years. Students may also choose to pursue a 2-year associate's degree, or simply obtain a 1-year certificate as well.
