Mission Statement

The Mission of Loyola College in Maryland is to inspire students to learn, lead and serve in a diverse and changing world.  The College, therefore, has a special commitment to promote international education both on campus and abroad.  The Jesuit mission is fundamentally associated with a global and open-minded vision that highly values and respects the rich cultural and spiritual diversity that characterizes human experience as a whole.

Loyola’s Office of International Programs strives to serve this mission through its broad offering of study abroad opportunities and its persistent support of international activities on campus.  Its study abroad programs combine some of the best academic offerings overseas with a broad range of service opportunities while immersing our students in other cultures.  On campus, the Office of International Programs aims to promote a more diverse and international climate to our students who, for different reasons, are unable to travel or study in a foreign country.  Its main goal is to help our students better understand and serve our world.  It plays a most valuable role in Loyola’s to address the central need for diversity and internationalization in modern education.
