Experiential Learning

BGU provides each student with a customized learning path connecting to a life-long global community.

BGU's Learning Distinctives

City Immersions

Through on-site immersions in the largest cities in 5 continents, students learn firsthand about God’s work in communities of both poverty and power engaging church, government, business, NGO’s, arts/media, and education. Pioneered by Ray Bakke who facilitated immersions in over 500 cities in his lifetime, this immersive learning adventure has been honed and innovated over 4 decades into a unique BGU transformational experience.

Coaching and Mentoring

Utilizing a unique network of scholar-practitioners on the frontline of transformational leadership in over 60 nations, BGU connects students to experts in their field of study to guide them with real-world experience. Ranging from friendship, advice, mentoring, and even formal executive coaching in the EMBA program, BGU students are enriched by global relationships that will stay with them for a lifetime.

Gift and Calling Assessment

As God calls individuals to transform communities, cities, and cultures, God provides them with the gifts, experience, motivations, and opportunities to focus their work on God’s purposes. Using unique community-based, story-centric assessment processes, BGU provides individualized guidance to each student to help them see God’s work in their past and present to follow God’s hand in preparing them for a future of increased transformational leadership.
