our Vision
The Vision:
Our vision is that the University of Findlay will become a leading Midwestern university characterized by the following three watch phrases:
Heartland Community
In a University founded on the principles of personal faith, civic mindedness, and scholarly achievement, we will advance our commitment to the personal attention essential to the development of our students as whole persons–knowledgeable, creative, ethical, and compassionate leaders in a global environment.
Variety of Perspectives
We will achieve a productive balance between innovative and time-tested approaches and programs in professional preparation, the liberal arts, and the natural sciences. We will embrace professional, cultural, and intellectual differences that will distinguish our programs from those of other comprehensive institutions of higher education. We will model civil discourse.
Transformative Experiences
We will leverage our location, size, and values to provide experiential learning for students in every program of study.
The Findlay Difference
Why Are We Different?
We are different because we offer experiential learning in all of our academic programs – including internships, research, service projects, and study abroad opportunities. At Findlay, the experiences outside of the classroom are as important as what they learn inside.
The caring, family environment has been a constant of the student experience. University of Findlay is a place where individuals can find their calling in life through scholarship, faith, service, and the sharing of ideas. These values are still true today at UF.
The University of Findlay is a place where individuals from all faiths are welcomed and guided to excel at their chosen vocation.
