The dream of Milwaukee鈥檚 first archbishop, Rev. John Martin Henni, to establish a Catholic, Jesuit college in Milwaukee was fulfilled in 1881 when Marquette College opened its doors to students. Today, 糖心传媒 continues the tradition of Catholic, Jesuit education by inviting students to grow in mind, heart and spirit. Our goal is to graduate students who are transformed by their education and who will transform the world in which they live 鈥� who will, in a phrase, become women and men for and with others.
Marquette鈥檚 focus on the four core university values of excellence, faith, leadership and service challenges students to integrate knowledge, faith and real-life choices in ways that will shape their lives.
Faith and spirituality affect the way teaching, learning, research and living take place on campus.

A Catholic and Jesuit education at Marquette is marked by the active intersection of the Gospel with culture and the intellect, as well as a deep commitment to the well-being of the whole human family.
Marquette's mission and vision statements define who we are and what we do. The Office of Mission and Ministry promotes that awareness and helps realize our mission in every dimension of university life. Specifically, the Office of Mission and Ministry:
