Statement of Mission
Albertus Magnus College provides a holistic, liberal arts based education that promotes
the search for Truth in all its dimensions and is practical in its application. As

Pillars of Study, Prayer, Community, and Service, Albertus Magnus provides learning
opportunities that respond to the diverse needs of its students and the ethical challenges

The mission of Albertus Magnus College derives from the intellectual tradition of
the Dominican Order whose essential charism is the search for truth (
Veritas
). Reflective of the dedication and commitment to service of our founder and sponsor,
we at Albertus assume responsibility for the fulfillment of our particular service
as an academic community. Principles which guide our mission and purpose include the
following:
The College embraces the Liberal Arts tradition and is committed to a vibrant curriculum,
including a General Education program, that is both scholarly and humanistically enlarging.
The College encourages students to participate in academic internships, practica and
relevant work experiences as preparation for meaningful careers.
The College strives to bring together a richly diverse student body and cultivates
an atmosphere of mutual respect and ethical behavior.
The College fosters close, positive interaction between faculty and students, thereby
offering broad opportunities for challenge and growth.
The College provides an educational environment dedicated to enhancing each student’s
development, both as an individual and as a member of society.

learners, encouraging them to contribute to their communities and to become moral
leaders in a complex world.
