<strong>Providence</strong> University <strong>College</strong> provides a premier Christian university education<br />
to students from all over the world. As an interdenominational school, the student<br />
body represents 15 church denominations <strong>and</strong> 22 countries. Our mission is to teach<br />
people to think, live, <strong>and</strong> serve as Christians in the church <strong>and</strong> society.<br />
What is Christ-Centred<br />
University Education?<br />
FACULTY Christ-centered university<br />
education begins with the Faculty.<br />
Professors integrate their work in<br />
media <strong>and</strong> communication, history,<br />
philosophy, sociology, microbiology,<br />
economics, etc, with their Christian<br />
faith.<br />
CURRICULUM We want students<br />
to underst<strong>and</strong> that Jesus Christ<br />
has authority over every academic<br />
discipline. Our academic programs<br />
are taught to the highest professional<br />
st<strong>and</strong>ards of each discipline. Only in<br />
this way can students meaningfully<br />
engage faith <strong>and</strong> learning.<br />
COMMUNITY In addition to<br />
academic work, we seek to establish<br />
Christ-centered community living.<br />
Worship, service, recreation,<br />
athletics, <strong>and</strong> dorm life are the<br />
foundation of vibrant spiritual<br />
development <strong>and</strong> faith formation<br />
in our community.<br />
STUDENTS Our goal is to produce<br />
graduates who can enter society<br />
fully underst<strong>and</strong>ing their spiritgiven<br />
roles as Christ’s disciples,<br />
challenging the world in terms<br />
justice <strong>and</strong> morality, <strong>and</strong> living lives<br />
that are characterized by excellence,<br />
expertise, discipline in work <strong>and</strong><br />
vocation, <strong>and</strong> doing so consistently<br />
in a Christ-centred manner.<br />
