- Mission
- Taylor University is a vibrant community of scholarship and Christian faith characterized by "relentless discovery, intentional community and global engagement." As US News & World Report's number one Midwest baccalaureate college for the last three years, Taylor is recognized for its exceptional academics and high graduation rates. Taylor has outstanding programs in computer science and engineering, biology and pre-med, business, and media communication. Students take advantage of cutting edge scientific research, state of the art technology, and successful competition teams in programming, math, business and ethics. Taylor's commitment to the arts is reflected in its excellent music groups, theatre performances, and art exhibits. Students examine a broad range of ideas through an interdisciplinary curriculum and the lens of a Christian worldview. Taylor's academic programs lead to top notch internships, excellent job placement and entrance to nationally ranked graduate schools. As part of its goal of global engagement, Taylor hosts several international centres, prepares its graduates to play important roles on the global stage and is highly ranked for its student participation in study abroad programs. In January 2010 alone, students traveled to more than 20 countries, in study and Lighthouse missions programs. Taylor gives more than lip service to "whole person" education, with its benchmark-setting student development programs, collegiate and intramural athletics, integration of faith and popular culture events and leadership development initiatives. Taylor students are passionate about serving God and others, and Taylor's intentional Christian community fosters deep relationships and an atmosphere for spiritual growth. Ministry outreach, Bible studies and accountability groups are important parts of community life at Taylor. Taylor produces exceptional graduates marked by a passion to minister the redemptive love of Jesus to a world in need. Alumni transformed by their Taylor experience give back to their alma mater with enthusiasm, giving at unusually high rates, investing in current Taylor students, and expressing extremely high satisfaction with their Taylor education. Taylor is also committed to growth. Construction has begun on two new facilities: the 137,000 sq ft Greg and Mary Fran Euler Science Learning Center to be completed by May 2012 and the Eichling Aquatics Wing, including Exercise Science labs, to be completed February 2011. Also, planning began for a new 22,000 sq ft student center and a 100-bed student apartment complex.
