Mission  
School mission Challenging minds, changing lives. For more than 100 years, Millikin University has been challenging students to reach their full intellectual potential and changing lives by preparing them for meaningful careers and personal lives. Millikin University is a private, primarily undergraduate, 75-acre institution of 2,400 students. With four colleges and schools--the College of Arts and Sciences, Tabor School of Business, the College of Fine Arts, and the College of Professional Studies--and over 60 majors, minors, and pre-professional programs, Millikin prepares its students for professional success, democratic citizenship in a diverse and dynamic global environment, and a personal life of meaning and value. Millikin students learn through real-world projects that reinforce classroom experiences, help develop practical skills, and serve the global community. Millikin students learn to see the connections with other academic disciplines and understand the diversity of human experience, the interactions between technology and society. Millikin students learn about themselves and others, developing a respect for differences and for the dignity of all. Employers and graduate schools continue to prize Millikin graduates; 94% of Millikin's 2007 graduates gained professional employment or entered graduate/professional school within six months of graduation.
