University of Dubuque - UD to our friends - is a private, coed university founded in 1852. Our 77-acre campus sits near the scenic bluffs along the mighty Mississippi in a dynamic river town that's grown into a center of business and culture. Here, the value of an education is measured in helping our students find their calling in life through academics, community, character, vocation, and stewardship. Our approach to learning is based on professional programs with a liberal arts core, and we prepare students to find their purpose and make meaningful contributions to the world.As a community, the University practices its Christian commitments by educating students, pursuing excellence in scholarship, challenging students to live lives of worth and purpose, and preparing students for service to the church and the world.

Therefore, the University of Dubuque is committed to:

- A hospitable Christian environment which respects other faith traditions;

- Relationships which encourage intellectual, spiritual, and moral development;

- Excellence in academic inquiry and professional preparation;

- A diverse and equitable community where Christian love is practiced;

- Stewardship of all God's human and natural resources;

- Zeal for life-long learning and service.
