Purposes of the University

In order to advance this mission, Taylor University is committed to the following purposes:

To provide whole person education, involving students in learning experiences imbued with a vital Christian interpretation of truth and life which foster their intellectual, emotional, physical, vocational, social, and spiritual development.
To offer liberal arts, professional and life-long education based upon the conviction that all truth has its source in God, and that being Biblically anchored, the Christian faith should permeate all learning leading to a consistent life of worship, servant leadership, stewardship, and world outreach.
To create specific experiences wherein the integrative focus of a Christian liberal arts education is clarified, personalized, and applied.
To contribute to the advancement of human knowledge and understanding and serve the evangelical Christian church and the larger (public) community for the glory of God.
To foster a biblical model of relationships that acknowledges both unity and diversity of the followers of Christ within a covenant community and which can be evidenced in a continuing lifestyle of service to and concern for others
To foster and maintain appropriate and effective support services that enable maximum program effectiveness throughout the university.
