AUSS publishes research articles and brief notes on the following topics: biblical archaeology and history of antiquity; Hebrew Bible; New Testament; church history of all periods; historical, biblical, and systematic theology; ethics; history of religion and mission; and selected research articles on ministry and Christian education.
Reports of the Andrews University archaeological digs appear regularly in AUSS. Abstracts of Andrews University dissertations in religion are also published.
