Mission : to deliver on the promise of education.

At Millikin, we prepare students for:

• professional success,
• democratic citizenship in a global environment, and
• a personal life of meaning and value.

The underpinning of our mission is the offering of an educational experience that integrates the traditional liberal arts and the practical arts of the professions. Our students discover and pursue their full potential, personally and professionally, to do well and to do good. Their discovery is theory and practice driven, guided by faculty and staff, within an inclusive and broadly accessible learning community.

Vision : to be recognized as a distinctive Midwestern university

Where theory, practice, and reflection guide our curriculum.

Where integrated learning, collaborative learning, and engaged learning dominate our culture.

Where students, faculty, staff, and administrators are engaged and stimulated.
