University's new Vision and Mission Statement

AdZU MISSION VISION 2024 10-5x16

VISION

The Ateneo de Zamboanga University, steering forward like Mindanao’s agile vinta, is determined to chart courses of transformative education, hope, and peace. Finding God in every wave and wind, we navigate with discerning leadership as a learning community. In our journey, the Spirit of Magis inspires us to sail with Christ toward a reconciled world.

MISSION

Guided by the compass of our Filipino, Catholic, and Jesuit values and heritage, Ateneo de Zamboanga University commits to seeking and upholding truth through a deeper engagement with God, one another, and creation:

  • In faith, we are Advancing Ignatian Spirituality. We infuse Western Mindanao’s education with transformative values that form persons and communities for and with others.
  • In service, we are Dedicated to Holistic Growth and Human Flourishing. We form compassionate and discerning leaders who care for our environment, and walk with, serve, and uplift others, especially the excluded, in a mission of reconciliation and justice.
  • In excellence, we are Zealous in Charting Global Paths. We ensure our instruction, research, and innovations resonate beyond our shores, responding to the evolving realities of society and building a sustainable future for all.
  • In companionship, we are United in Purpose and Action. We collaborate, adapt, and strive for institutional excellence and meaningful community engagements, always laboring for the greater glory of God.

This is Our AdZU. This is Our Mission. Pro Deo et Patria, in the service of God and Country.
