Our vision and motto have set us on an agenda that will seek to develop the individual to the fullest. We don't want to produce graduates who will be mere reflectors of other men's thoughts. Rather, our vision compels us to train independent thinkers and innovators who will move their worlds; young men and women who will exercise their minds to solve the energy and natural resource crises confronting us; young men and women who possess not only the ambition to dream, but have the intellectual and practical knowledge to effect the change they want to see in the world; young men and women who will use their degrees to benefit and uplift humanity.
