OBJECTIVES
The fourfold goal of Horizon University (HU) is to educate students to become academically successful and intellectually confident, gain cultural awareness and tolerance, and obtain the practical skills and knowledge necessary for professionals, in order to serve as dedicated Christian leaders who have a foundation in Biblical knowledge and Christian values and are able to employ Christian principles within their career and interpersonal relationships.
First, students will be academically successful and intellectually confident, which are important qualities for overall professional success. Students will achieve skills necessary to analyze and absorb important information in their discipline, and students will apply their knowledge to real-world situations.
Second, students will develop cultural awareness and tolerance in order to be compassionate and fair leaders. Students will evaluate differences that may arise while at work in various communities and will create a space built upon inclusion and Christian love.
Third, the education received at HU will grow strong professionals who have superior knowledge and skills of their respective professional fields. Students will acquire practical skills that they are able to demonstrate in the field.
Our fourth and most important goal is to mold and cultivate strong, dedicated spiritual leaders who are well–versed in Biblical knowledge and Christian values. Students will apply Christian principles to pursue their vision and mission in life and deliver their knowledge to others in a mature and compassionate manner.
