Explication
Thomas More University is the Catholic University of the Diocese of Covington, Kentucky. The University welcomes students of all faiths and beliefs. Our primary mission is to develop and sustain challenging undergraduate, graduate, and professional programs of study, marked by superior teaching and scholarship within the Catholic intellectual tradition.
Inspired by the teachings of the Catholic Church, and by our patron, Saint Thomas More, we challenge students to examine the ultimate meaning of life, their place in the world, and their responsibility to others. Our programs of study emphasize liberal arts within a context of ethical concern and social responsibility. These programs of study are complemented by co-curricular services and programs intended to enhance lifelong learning, foster personal growth, and develop leadership qualities.
Liberal Arts
The term Liberal Arts is rooted in the Latin liberare, “to liberate, set free.” A Liberal Arts education cultivates lifelong learning and fosters the skills needed to be morally engaged citizens of the world.
Catholic Intellectual Tradition
Thomas More University continues the Catholic Intellectual Tradition, welcoming new generations to seek excellence in the pursuit of truth. From ancient times this tradition has sought wisdom in every area of thought, gladly learning from every source, Christian or not. We seek to share the discoveries of the ages with all who wish to enter into this quest regardless of personal beliefs.
Meaning of Life
We invite you to reflect on your relationships with nature, humanity, and the divine to choose a meaningful direction for your life.
Place in the World
From many disciplines, we encourage you to understand and respect the interconnectedness of our world.
Responsibility to Others
In the hope of building a better world, we urge you to live moral principles in your community and career.
