SMBC meaning in Academic & Science ?

Sydney Missionary and Bible College (SMBC) is an independent, evangelical interdenominational Bible college in Sydney, Australia.

The college was founded in 1916 by C. Benson Barnett. Its goal is to train people for ministry in Australia and abroad. There are two campuses, one in Croydon and another in Croydon Park (opened in 2010).

SMBC opened several new student housing units on its main campus in 2009.

SMBC is Bible-centred: the academic curriculum is dominated by the Bible and a key focus of the college is to train men and women for gospel ministry in Australia and overseas in a missionary context.

Stuart Coulton, a former principal of SMBC, retired at the beginning of 2020.Derek Brotherson was appointed as the principal of SMBC in 2020.

The second campus is named "Roberts-Dale" Campus after two martyred graduates, Fred Roberts (Amazon region of Brazil, 1935) and Stan Dale (West Papua, 1968).

Graduates of SMBC serve in cross cultural gospel ministry, both overseas and throughout Australia, or in Christian pastoral church ministry in various denominations, as Scripture teachers, in tertiary student ministry and educational or hospital chaplaincy, or in their local churches or chosen trades or professions.

SMBC hosts various public talks to give a biblical perspective on current issues such as social media, disability, atheism and miracles.
