We Believe in Transformative Learning

We ensure that career support, like undergraduate research opportunities and graduate faculty mentorship, is embedded in the curriculum and tailored to fit individual objectives.

Our commitment to transformative learning is founded on three core principles:

An intellectually challenging and rigorous academic experience built on a strong foundation in the liberal arts

Learning experiences that are both immersive and that extend beyond the classroom

Preparation for life after Monmouth

Because we live these principles, our alumni have the preparation, relationships and insight needed to thrive throughout their lives.

Monmouth Centers of Distinction

Monmouth is home to a vibrant culture rich in history, the arts, technology and entrepreneurship. Our renowned faculty is actively involved in advancing academic research nationwide while encouraging meaningful community involvement.

There is no clearer example of this work than our Centers & Institutes. These centers of distinction promote awareness of specific issues and meet the needs of local and global communities. Because they are located right on campus, they offer students valuable hands-on experience outside the classroom and the chance to work directly with influential leaders.
