He graduated from Hope College in 1941, and shortly after studied Chinese at the California College in China (on the UC-Berkeley campus).

He pursued further graduate work in Japanese Studies at the University of Michigan (1951-1952), in American intellectual history at the University of Chicago (19581959), and in American Literature at the University of Wisconsin (1969-1970). Hope College awarded Van Wyk an honorary doctorate in Humane Letters (LHD) in 1980. Accompanied by his wife, Bertha (neé Vis, also a Hope graduate), Van Wyk was a teacher and RCA missionary to Asia, first in Foochow, China, where he taught Western History at Fukien Christian University from 1946 to 1950. After being expelled by the communist regime, Van Wyk from 1953 to 1985 taught Bible, American Literature and History at RCAaffiliated Meiji Gakuin University (MGU) in Tokyo, Japan.

Theological Seminary (1985-1986). Gordon Van Wyk died on April 9, 1997, in Louisville, Kentucky.
