Mission Statement

Brock flourishes through the scholarly, creative and professional achievements of our students, faculty and staff. Although we share a common purpose, we recognize and honour knowledge pursued through diverse perspectives and approaches. Our academic mission is to nurture and support our students and faculty in the discovery of knowledge through exemplary scholarship, teaching and service.

We provide undergraduate, graduate and professional education of the highest quality. Our graduate programs enhance Brock’s growing reputation for excellence in teaching, research, creativity and innovation. We provide a transformative experience for our students inside and outside the classroom by helping to develop their full potential as educated and engaged citizens in local and global communities. Brock graduates go out into the world as leaders, with a track record of entering fulfilling careers across all disciplines.

Brock University works to enhance the economic, social, cultural and intellectual lives of the communities around us — Niagara, Ontario, Canada and beyond — and to demonstrate the vital ways in which we contribute to the health, well-being and betterment of society in the 21st century.
