Mission Statement

University of Minnesota Duluth Mission UMD serves northern Minnesota, the state, and the nation as a medium-sized comprehensive university dedicated to excellence in all its programs and operations. As a university community in which knowledge is sought as well as taught, its faculty recognize the importance of scholarship and service, the intrinsic value of research, and the significance of a primary commitment to quality instruction. At UMD, a firm liberal arts foundation anchors a variety of traditional degree programs, outreach offerings, and selected professional and graduate studies. Active learning through internships, honors programs, research, and community service promotes the development of skills, critical thinking, and maturity sought by society. Demanding standards of performance for students, faculty, and staff make UMD attractive to students with strong academic potential. The campus contributes to meeting the cultural needs of the region and serves as a central resource point for the economic development of the region through community outreach and through an emphasis on the sea-grant and land-grant components of its program. UMD significantly contributes to enhancing the national stature of the University of Minnesota by emphasizing quality programs central to the University's mission and UMD's distinctive mission within the University system, including graphic design and freshwater undergraduate research. Providing an alternative to both large research-oriented universities and small liberal arts colleges, UMD attracts the student looking for a program that emphasizes a personalized learning experience on a medium-sized campus of a major university. The UMD learning experience includes undergraduate research opportunities for all students in the arts, humanities, and sciences plus an expectation of involvement in volunteerism and value-added leadership development opportunities. Maintenance of a high-quality residential learning environment makes a critical contribution to the strength of the undergraduate learning environment. Technology continues to provide support and definition throughout the curriculum, operations, and outreach. Integration of cutting-edge technology is a focus in all planning efforts.
