The curriculum of European Nazarene College consists of five clusters. All courses, listed in the different programmes, belong to one of five clusters (A-E). The way the five clusters in the curriculum framework are related reflects what European Nazarene College sees as its primary mission: the education of ministers. In the description of the clusters below, the required number of ECTS for each of the programmes is also listed. These are the minimum requirements for each programme at every location.

(All course numbers starting with BIB)
The foundational source that informs our view on God, the Church, the world, and ministry is Scripture. Therefore students need to become well-grounded in Scripture for receiving direction and inspiration.

Certificate in Spiritual Formation: 15 ECTS
Diploma in Christian Ministry: 25 ECTS
Advanced Diploma in Applied Theology: 35 ECTS

(All course numbers starting with THE)
Flowing out of Scripture comes our theology, which complements Scripture with information from tradition, reason and experience (Wesleyan Quadrilateral). It is our distinctive Wesleyan theology that provides identity, and describes who we are as a church.

(All course numbers starting with MIS, PAS, and some PRC)
The core of the curriculum is a biblical understanding of the heart of God and His mission in the world. Our understanding of the church and of our lives as vocation needs to be informed by this missiological understanding, and believers need to find their place in the missionary activity of God through the Church as the body of Christ.

(All course numbers starting with MIN)
Along with studying the essential ministries of the church and receiving the appropriate knowledge through the courses in the other clusters, the students will be exploring specific ministries or the roles of a minister and developing the needed competencies.
