ABOUT UGE

As we work to achieve our Mission, we do so while maintaining our dedication to the following values:

• Educational Excellence: We have high standards for achievement in all we do and we communicate those standards externally.

• Life-Long Learning: learning is not a discrete activity, but rather a continuous, and life-long endeavor. We must continue to learn for personal and societal growth.

• Creative Innovation: Embracing openness to change, experimentation, curiosity.

• Student-Centered Focus: We are committed to the success of all students at UK.

• Diversity: Our strengths lie in the differences among us. We are from many cultures and lands, and we must learn from one another to improve our world.

• Collaboration: We will only be successful if we leverage the strengths of all units on campus, including colleges and other administrative units of the University of Kentucky.

• Respect: we treat students, faculty and staff with the respect they deserve in order to build and maintain a productive and meaningful learning and work environment.
