Global University creates Partnership with Logos

Global University Announces Partnership with Logos

Global University has partnered with Faithlife for two distinct Logos Bible Software programs: a custom library contextualized for Global University graduate students AND a textbook program that delivers your course textbooks as Logos digital books.

Global University entered into these partnerships because we are committed to equipping our students with the highest quality academic resources while earning their graduate degrees. We are also committed to equipping our students with resources that accompany you in your ministry anywhere in the world. Whether your service to Jesus finds you in the city or remote rural location, your ministry library is with you. This digital library will expertly support your messages, teaching content, counseling, leadership administration, and disciplining ministry, which hundreds of digital library resources specific to the dedicated servant leader will expertly support.

Logos Bible Software Custom Library

This collection of 177 titles curated by Logos and Global faculty represents a broad set of resources for Bible study, theological study, church ministry, and leadership. The library comes in the Logos 10 Academic software, an amazingly robust research platform with additional study resources not listed in the library. The library and software have a suggested retail price of over $8,000 USD.

FAQs

WHO RECEIVES THE LOGOS CUSTOM LIBRARY AND SOFTWARE?

All new graduate students will receive the Logos custom library as a required component of their degree programs. The cost of the library will be divided into twelve $50 payments, which will be added to the enrollment fees of the first twelve course enrollments.

CAN EXISTING STUDENTS PURCHASE THE CUSTOM LOGOS LIBRARY AND SOFTWARE?

Students who were admitted before January 1, 2024, may purchase the Logos library and software for a single payment of $500 and permanently own the library.

DO I GET TO KEEP THE LOGOS CUSTOM LIBRARY AND SOFTWARE?

As of January 1, 2024, new students receive a temporary license for the Logos resources. Students who complete their degree will keep the library for the rest of their lives. Students who choose not to complete their degree may purchase the library for lifetime ownership for a total payment of $800 or forfeit it.

WHEN WILL I RECEIVE THE CUSTOM LIBRARY AND SOFTWARE?

New students will receive an email with download and Logos instructions within five days of admission.

ARE MY TEXTBOOKS INCLUDED IN THIS CUSTOM LIBRARY?

Although Global has partnered with Logos to provide digital textbooks, this is a separate program. However, some resources required for New Testament Greek courses are included in the digital library.

ARE LOGOS DIGITAL TEXTBOOKS AVAILABLE FOR ALL GLOBAL GRADUATE COURSES?

Not yet, but we are heading there. Eventually, all graduate courses will use only Logos digital textbooks. That is our goal, but it will take a couple of years. Twelve (12) courses are currently available for enrollment with Logos textbooks, with more scheduled to be added early next year.

WHAT DO THE LOGOS TEXTBOOKS COST?

This is one of the great benefits of our partnership with Logos. A universal fee of $70 is added to the enrollment fees for each course using Logos digital textbooks. Compare this to the average cost of printed textbooks across all graduate courses, which is $100 plus shipping.

Logos Bible Software Digital Textbooks

Global has also partnered with Faithlife to deliver the required course textbooks for graduate programs, such as digital Logos books. These digital Logos books are yours to keep for life. Along with the Logos digital textbooks, a basic Logos Bible Software research software package is included if you do not already own a Logos library. The Logos digital textbook program significantly reduces the cost of textbooks across the breadth of a graduate degree program. The books are less expensive, and the shipping cost is also eliminated. Bible study, sermon preparation, and other ministry research tasks will automatically search your graduate study textbooks. You can study anywhere, anytime, without carrying printed textbooks—study on your mobile phone, tablet, or laptop, with all your textbooks easily accessible.
