What does the Lord require of you, but to do justice, love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God? — Micah 6:8

Mission

EMU prepares students to serve and lead in a global context.

Our community of learning integrates Christian faith, academic rigor, artistic creation and reflective practice informed by the liberal arts, interdisciplinary engagement, and cross-cultural encounter.

Vision

EMU will be renowned for academic excellence and faithful discipleship in addressing the most significant chal- lenges in our complex world.

We seek to be a leader among Christian universities, united by a hopeful and enquiring spirit, cultivating meaningful relationships locally and globally, and engaging the rich diversity of human identity, experience, and need.

Values

EMU's mission and vision are ground- ed in the enduring biblical values of Christian discipleship, community, service, and peace.

These values are embodied throughout the university in our distinctive com- mitment to peacebuilding, social justice, cross-cultural engagement, and sustain- ability. Rooted in the Anabaptist tradi- tion, we follow Jesus' call to bear witness to truth, serve with compassion, and walk boldly in the way of nonviolence and peace.
