Backed by nearly a half-century of ministry education excellence from our parent corporation, MIUD (founded on March 30, 1999) is an institution of higher education with a mission to provide reasonably priced high-quality Christian ministry programs that strengthen genuinely Bible-based and Christ-centered worldviews.

We maintain collegial and articulation agreements with other like-minded institutions and ministry organizations. These relationships help to promote institutional excellence while keeping our tuition within the reach of most men and women in ministry. This allows our students to graduate without tuition debt.

We have earned a reputation as an innovator and leader in ministry education. Having enrolled over 12,000 students and more than 2,000 graduates, MIUD significantly contributes to Christ-centered and Bible-based theological distance education while advancing the evangelical worldview. Our academic and Biblical integrity is well documented in our history and reflected in our recognition.  Admission policies and program completion requirements at MIUD are similar to those of other credible institutions of Biblical higher education.
