Atlantic Baptist University

Atlantic Baptist University is a small Christian university located in Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada. It offers undergraduate degrees in Arts, Science and Education, and is run by the [United Baptist Convention of the Atlantic Provinces]?.

The school was founded in 1949 under the name [United Baptist Bible Training School]? (UBBTS), and served as both a [secondary school]? and a [Bible school]?. Over two decades, the focus of the school gradually shifted toward post-secondary programs. In1968, UBBTS became a Bible and Junior Christian Liberal Arts College, and in 1970 the name was changed to [Atlantic Baptist College]? (ABC). A sustained campaign to expand the school's faculty and improve the level of education resulted in ABC being able to grant full [Bachelor of Arts]? degrees in the early 1980s. The college moved to a new campus in 1996, and due to continued academic expansion, the name was changed to Atlantic Baptist University.
