The University of America
History, Vision and Mission
The University of America is a prestigious international university whose mission is to provide top quality education to students throughout the world by combining both traditional teaching methods and state of the art online facilities. The university is an independent Southern Baptist institution with its administrative headquarters in Murrie
ta California and Salt Lake City, Utah. The university runs its programs 70 per cent online and 30 per cent on campus for the science and arts programs requiring practicum. Our educational philosophy is to constantly pursue greater knowledge and understanding, by maintaining an open and enquiring mind: "To question all things; - never to turn away from any difficulty; to accept no doctrine either from ourselves or from other people without a rigid scrutiny by negative criticism; letting no fallacy, no incoherence, or confusion of thought step by unperceived; ... these are the lessons we learn from the ancient dialecticians." John Stuart Mill, Inaugural address as Rector, University of St. Andrews 1 February 1867. Accreditations Approvals and Memberships
