Daemen College : About Daemen : President's Welcome
President's Welcome
Welcome to Daemen College and a World of Opportunity
Courage. Curiosity. Imagination. Knowledge. Critical Thinking. Creativity. Innovation. Professionalism. Success.
These attributes are at the heart of a Daemen College education - one that excels in preparing students for professional excellence, intellectual rigor, and dedication to the well-being of the local, national, and global communities in which they live. Daemen students are thinking individuals whose dedication to life does not end with professional success; in fact, it only begins there. Daemen students are curious and critically thinking individuals, who understand that learning is a life long journey that just begins in College. During their time here students come to relish challenge and complexity and embrace uncertainty as an opportunity to engage their intellectual breadth, creativity, global perspective and professional abilities.
Daemen College focuses on cultivating minds and embracing connections between different areas of study and between the classroom and everyday life. This connection linking the classroom, intellectual growth, professional preparation, and societal responsibility is part of the College's commitment to innovation in learning. Daemen models this innovation for students through the Research and Information Commons (RIC), the soon-to-be completed Center for the Visual and Performing Arts, the newly formed Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning, and the development of distinct and unique opportunities for study and research at home and in other countries. Students of all majors can develop the skills to craft creative responses to societal needs, applying creativity and critical thinking through a minor in entrepreneurship. The College offers innovative majors, including Global and Local Sustainability and through its International Center for Excellence in Animation.
Daemen's challenging but nurturing atmosphere is designed to encourage students to go beyond their initial expectations, to more fully develop their talents (including unknown ones), and to develop habits of mind that enrich their lives and their communities. Thank you for visiting our web site. I look forward to your interest in Daemen College - a College where a world of opportunity awaits you.
