The
Regis Mission
Since 1877, Regis has developed a reputation for academic
excellence and a commitment to the Jesuit mission of developing
leaders committed to the service of others. Regis University
educates men and women of all ages to take leadership roles
and to make a positive impact in a changing society. Standing
within the Catholic and United States traditions, we are inspired
by the particular Jesuit vision of Ignatius Loyola. This vision
challenges us to attain the inner freedom to make intelligent
choices.
We seek to provide value-centered undergraduate and graduate
education, as well as to strengthen commitment to community
service. We nurture the life of the mind and the pursuit of
truth within an environment conducive to effective teaching,
learning and personal development. Consistent with Judeo-Christian
principles, we apply knowledge to human needs and seek to
preserve the best of the human heritage. We encourage the
continual search for truth, values and a just existence. Throughout
this process, we examine and attempt to answer the fundamental
question: "How ought we to live?"
