Marquette University is a Catholic, Jesuit university dedicated to serving God by serving our students and contributing to the advancement of knowledge. Our mission, therefore, is the search for truth, the discovery and sharing of knowledge, the fostering of personal and professional excellence, the promotion of a life of faith, and the development expressed in service to others.
Our alumni serve in senior leadership positions at major U.S. companies, including Kimberly-Clark Corp., CDW Computer, Manpower Inc., the American Cancer Society, Fox Sports Network, the San Francisco Giants, Teen People magazine, Ebony magazine and the e-magazine Salon.com (that's just a few).
Multiple alumni have won the venerated Pulitzer Prize for journalism, and our College of Nursing is one of only five United States Ph.D. programs with a teacher/scholar focus. And our medical school acceptance rate surpasses the national average.
