Our mission is to offer educational programs that prepare students for religious vocations as ministers, professionals, or laypersons in the categories of ministry, counseling, theology, education, administration, music, fine arts, media communications, or social work.
In addition, we provide services and training for religious organizations.
Therefore, we want to dedicate ourselves to carry out this goal through scientific religious research.
The qualification 'scientific' refers to the attitude and working method of a researcher who, through a critical approach to the subject matter, taking into account all available data (including source languages/texts) and in discussion with earlier or different types of research results, tries to develop a balanced and innovative vision concerning a clearly defined issue in an independent manner.
Continuous research is also an important part of our mission and vision.
In taking texts and other data seriously and approaching them as openly and honestly as
possible, it helps us also, to understand the holyness of the creation.
Our religious university is guided by a vision of a world, where people of different
faith cooperate effectively for peace and human development.
