Hanil University and Presbyterian Theological Seminary currently offers theological studies in three faculties. The first is the Faculty of Theology which offers a four-year program of theological studies leading to the Th.B. degree. This undergraduate college level program includes courses in Biblical Studies(both Old and New Testaments), Systematic and Constructive Theology, Church History, Missiology(Taekwondo Mission), Pastoral Counseling, Christian Education and Pastoral Theology and Ministry. The language of instruction is Korean with occasional courses being offered with translation, usually using either English or German. Students from other departments and faculties frequently take theology courses and an increasing number of students pursue a double major in Theology and Social Welfare. There are approximately 450-500 students studying in the undergraduate Faculty of Theology. This includes regular day students, evening class students and a special program on Mondays for women evangelists and pastors' wives. The second faculty offering theological studies is the Presbyterian Theological Seminary(Hanil Graduate School of Theology), a three-year graduate program leading to the professional M.Div. degree for those seeking ordination. The M.Div. program prepares women and men for ordination in the Presbyterian Church of Korea(Tonghap) as well as other denominations. The language of instruction is Korean with occasional courses being offered with translation using English or German. Currently there are approximately 150-200 students enrolled in the Hanil Graduate School of Theology. The third faculty offering theological studies is the Asia Pacific Graduate School of Theological Studies, which offers a graduate program for recognized church leaders culminating in either the M.A. or Th.M. degree. Currently major fields of study include Biblical Studies, Theology, Missiology, and Christian Education. Applicants to this program must possess an undergraduate college or university degree for admission into the M.A. program and a university degree plus a basic theological degree (Th.B., B.D., or M.Div.) for admission into the Th.M. program. All applicants must be recommended by their home churches. Currently the Asia Pacific Graduate School of Theological studies offers two programs-one using Korean as the medium of instruction and the other using English as the medium of instruction. Approximately 35 students are enrolled in the Asia Pacific Graduate School of Theological Studies. Although Hanil University is Presbyterian in its denominational affiliation and Reformed in its theological tradition, both the faculty and student body are thoroughly ecumenical and students from all Christian churches are encouraged to apply. The predecessor institutions to Hanil, the Neel Bible School in Kwangju and the Ada Hamilton Clark Bible School in Jeonju (founded in 1923), were both founded for the training of Bible women to serve the Korean church. When the two schools merged to form Hanil in 1961 the focus continued to be upon providing quality education for women. Although Hanil became coeducational in 1982, there continues to be a strong emphasis upon education for women and approximately 60% of the student body of the university are women. It is significant that the first woman to be ordained in the Presbyterian Church of Korea is a graduate of Hanil.
