MISSION
COVENANT INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY AND SIMINARY cultivates knowledge and love of God in a Christ-centered community of learners and scholars, with an enduring commitment to the integration of exemplary academics, spiritual formation, and engagement with the world. Our University is equipping students to discover their divine design so they may serve the world through Christ-Empowered learning, leading and living through Online Christian Education. Our mission is clear and our approach is simple: We engage students that are privilege and less privileged in authentic spiritual and intellectual growth, equipping them to make a real difference in the world. We also exist to equip students to discover their divine design so that they may serve the world through Christ-empowered learning, leading and living.
With students from all around the world, we are a diverse community of faith committed to becoming who God created us to be. With such diversity, it is necessary for us to have set standards that align with our values and guide us toward a clear and unified way in which to live.
As cornerstones for why we exist, our desire is that while you are here you would be successful academically, socially and spiritually. In order to ensure this success, we have provided many resources as a benchmark and guide as members of this diverse community of Christians.
Covenant University is also providing students with a sound theoretical base and those practical skills which will facilitate their ready acceptance into the world and to develop intellectual curiosity and desire for lifelong learning. We are also educating students on indigenous issues, regional and international integration, finance and infrastructure through Christian Education. OUR COVENANT VALUES include but not limited to: Be Christ-centered, Live the “Jesus Way” – love God and others, Be Collaborative, Ask Questions, Listen, Celebrate Others, and Be Open to Change. If we don’t like change, we’re going to like irrelevance even less, Be a Performer, Do the thing you have to do better than you have to do it, and Be a Decision-Maker. It’s not hard to make decisions when you know what your values are.
