Vision Grand Canyon University is a premier Christian University educating people to lead and serve.
Mission Statement
Grand Canyon University prepares learners to become global citizens, critical thinkers, effective communicators, and responsible leaders by providing an academically challenging, values-based curriculum from the context of our Christian heritage.
Mission Based Student Learning Competencies
Tied to the mission statement of GCU are mission-based competencies that faculty and administration believe are imperative for students to learn. GCU strives to ensure students who progress through their program at different times exit the program with the same foundational knowledge and demonstrable skills, and that graduates bring commensurate knowledge and practical skills to the workforce. Consistent competencies and objectives, regardless of the modality, are the foundation of every program design. All GCU courses provide foundational knowledge and then apply or synthesize the learning. Thus, all graduates of the same program will have developed comparable skill sets.
