WELCOME TO MARQUETTE UNIVERSITY!
On behalf of the entire Marquette University family, I am pleased to welcome you to our Web site. I hope it provides you with a good introduction to the distinctive, values-based education that we provide.
Marquette is a university where students thrive. We offer a unique educational experience that weaves the resources found at major research universities with personal care for every student. This is a very challenging academic environment, one enriched by dedicated faculty who believe in guiding students on their academic journey as they become leaders in their professional lives as well as their communities.
We are committed to our Catholic, Jesuit heritage. For more than 450 years, the Jesuit order of Roman Catholic priests has been committed to rigorous intellectual discourse and discovery. And that captures in essence what a Marquette education is about.
We call a Marquette education a transformational experience. We truly believe that our graduates leave here not simply better educated but better people.
As president of Marquette, I am deeply committed to this educational enterprise and especially to the students, families, alumni and friends who put their trust in us today and continue to believe that Marquette has the potential to be one of the best Catholic universities in the country.
