Philosophy & Goals

Immaculata University has been built on the firm belief that the highest service a college can render its students is to prepare them for life, both the present life and the life to come. Immaculata University, aware of the demands of a changing world, offers students the means to grow as integral persons, responsible to God, the Church, and one another, and stimulates growth within a Christ-centered academic community. As a community of faith and learning, Immaculata dedicates all available resources to the search for truth. In this community, students are challenged to recognize and fulfill their roles as responsible persons and potential leaders in dedicated concern for and service to humanity and our world. The Immaculata faculty assists students in the pursuit of these goals. Immaculata's program, based on the liberal arts, is designed to encourage logical and critical thought, independent study, and the integration of knowledge. The college strives to develop in students an aesthetic sense and the ability to communicate ideas effectively. In this intellectual atmosphere, the college hopes that students will comprehend the issues posed by human achievements and failures, and reach an understanding of the full meaning of the individual as a Christian witness in all phases of life.
