Mission and Vision

The mission, vision and values project was born out of a need to better both reflect on and steer the evolution of their university. Their previous mission statement was approved in 1993, and their university has changed on many fronts since that time.

Their mission, vision and values do much to clarify who they are as a post-secondary institution. As they make decisions and set their path for the future, this consensus on who they are and what they are trying to achieve is essential to making good decisions, and forging a significant path.

With the support of our alumni, partners, donors, supporters and community, they have untold potential. The work done in creating the mission, vision and values project will help them continue to focus their considerable expertise and talents, and will guide their university's continued evolution.
