The International Centre for Excellence
in Leadership is pleased to cooperate with
The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
to facilitate IMB personnel's pursuit of the
Master of Arts in Theological Studies,
Intercultural Leadership Track (MATSIL).
The MATSIL program seeks to prepare men and
women for living and ministering in a pluralistic
and multicultural 21st century world. Students will
be prepared to recognize and understand their
own world views and cultures as well as the
worldviews and culture of others.

The MATSIL program is intended to prepare
students for working in diverse cultures through
the study of anthropology, intercultural
communication, theology, church history,
missiology, leadership, evangelism, church
planting, biblical studies, and world religions.

Students serving with the International Mission
Board are eligible to take some courses that
incorporate materials from ICEL, FPO, and field
training opportunities.

Twenty-four hours required for the MATSIL
program must be completed on the SBTS campus
in Louisville, Kentucky due to accreditation
requirements. The remaining half of the required
hours may come from a variety of sources,
including online classes, field intensives, and
transfer credits.
