Mission Statement

Union College, founded in 1795, is a scholarly community dedicated to shaping the future and to understanding the past.   Faculty, staff and administrators welcome diverse and talented students into our community, work closely with them to provide a broad and deep education and guide them in finding and cultivating their passions.  We do this with a wide range of disciplines and interdisciplinary programs in the liberal arts and engineering, as well as academic, athletic, cultural and social activities, including opportunities to study abroad and to participate in undergraduate research and community service.   We develop in our students the analytic and reflective abilities needed to become engaged, innovative and ethical contributors to an increasingly diverse, global and technologically complex society.
