Mission

MORAVIAN UNIVERSITY'S REVOLUTIONARY EXPERIENCE IS FOCUSED ON CREATING A COMMUNITY OF LEARNERS WHERE STUDENTS WORK CLOSELY WITH PROFESSORS TO DEVELOP SKILLS AND HABITS, INTEGRATING THEM INTO PROFESSIONAL CAREERS THROUGH EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING. BY FOCUSING ON THE SKILLS OF COMMUNICATION, ANALYSIS, TEAMWORK AND LEADERSHIP, ETHICAL REASONING, GLOBAL AWARENESS, AND CRITICAL THINKING, MORAVIAN UNIVERSITY PREPARES STUDENTS WITH THE TRANSFERABLE SKILLS NEEDED FOR ANY CAREER. A MORAVIAN EDUCATION IS UNIQUE IN ITS USE OF HISTORY, SKILL OF REFLECTIVITY, AND ITS ENCOURAGEMENT TO BE PRODUCERS. THE FOUNDERS OF MORAVIAN UNIVERSITY WERE PRODUCERS AS WELL AS EDUCATORS, SO A MORAVIAN EDUCATION FOCUSES ON THE PRODUCTION OF NEW KNOWLEDGE, MUSIC, LITERATURE, ART, AND TECHNOLOGY. STUDENTS PUT ALL THESE SKILLS INTO PRACTICE THROUGH UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH, STUDY ABROAD, INTERNSHIPS, CO-OPS, CERTIFICATES, AND FIRST PROFESSIONAL GRADUATE DEGREES.
