THE UNIVERSITY OF DAYTON IS A COMPREHENSIVE UNIVERSITY
We are committed to being an educational community that: 
offers a broad range of undergraduate programs and selected graduate and continuing education programs; 
views learning and scholarship as a shared task of discovering, integrating, applying and communicating knowledge; and 
emphasizes learning and scholarship at the intersections of liberal and professional education, of the disciplines, and of theory and practice. 
As a comprehensive university, we commit ourselves: to educating students within a vibrant learning community; to strong programs in both liberal arts and sciences and the professional disciplines; to collaboration across disciplinary and organizational boundaries. As a community, we are dedicated to excellence in teaching and seek to share it, critically review and evaluate it, and together transform our practices of learning and teaching. We are also dedicated to excellence in creating new knowledge, integrating this knowledge across disciplinary boundaries, and applying it creatively to meet human needs. We are responsive and serve the needs of our community and region. Our pursuit of learning and scholarship is characterized by academic freedom and professional responsibility.
