Our Mission & Values
Mission
Webster University, a worldwide institution, ensures high-quality learning experiences that transform students for global citizenship and individual excellence.
Vision
Our vision is to be a premier U.S-based international university setting a distinct standard for global education. This vision is built on a foundation of excellence in teaching and enhanced by an international perspective that fosters dialogue, respect, and understanding across boundaries and between peoples.
The educational endeavors in support of this vision are meeting the needs and enriching a global mix of learners within an ever-increasing network of students desiring a U.S. education in multiple parts of the world. The institution is committed to offering these students a distinctly personal experience and building the resources required to achieve this vision. The actions of the institution are shaped by our core values.
Celebrating A Century of Academic Excellence
In 1915, the Sisters of Loretto had a bold vision of establishing a university that would admit and educate only women. Opening with five students, the institution’s first graduating class totaled just two women.
Today our main campus looks quite different than it did more than a century ago—and even different from when it was renamed Webster University in 1983.
Now, the University engages thousands of individuals living and working worldwide, honoring the Sisters of Loretto’s legacy in the pursuit of academic excellence, equality, and global citizenship.
