Founded by
Dr. Mary McLeod Bethune in 1904,
Bethune-Cookman University is an historically
Black, United Methodist Church-related college
offering baccalaureate degrees. The mission is
to serve in the Christian tradition the
educational, social, and cultural needs of its
students--traditional and non-traditional--and
to develop in them the desire and capacity for
continuous intellectual and professional growth,
leadership, and service to others.
Institutional priorities in
the mission of the University are teaching,
research, community service and commitment to
moral and personal values. The University
enrolls promising secondary school graduates and
adult learners from diverse social, economic and
educational backgrounds. Most of the students
come from Florida; however, the University
actively recruits students from the national and
international communities.
To enhance student life, the
University provides well-rounded activities for
all students in areas, such as, service and
social organizations, religious programs, honor
societies, major area clubs, intercollegiate
athletics, and an intramural athletics program.
Bethune-Cookman University
accomplishes its mission by providing excellent
facilities, instruction, current technology, and
support services for liberal arts,
career-oriented and continuing education
programs. The University emphasizes teaching by
continually adapting teaching techniques to meet
student needs and by providing support programs
for faculty development. Research is conducted
and encouraged in order to enhance knowledge and
to meet the challenges of a changing world. The
University has deep roots in the social history
of America and continues to provide services to
the broader community through its on-and-off
campus outreach programs.
