Courses

The classroom setting at Eden is a lively place! Professors — recognized scholars in their fields — teach with lectures, seminars, PowerPoint presentations and Internet activity. They do it in quiet classroom experience. They do it as students make presentations and preach sermons. 

These experiences are enriched by the people in the classrooms, the discussions and then, of course, by what goes on when you leave the classroom.
