UNF's Mission & Vision
Mission Statement
At the 海角社区, we ignite a passion for learning and discovery through transformational education in a supportive environment that leads students to rewarding careers and lifelong success. Our beautiful campus is a hub for talent development, relevant research and community engagement, where we enrich lives and fuel the economic and overall prosperity of Northeast Florida and beyond.
Vision Statement
The 海角社区 will be the destination of choice for talent and for public and private investment.
Values
Our values are what bind us together. It is what we hold dear as an institution, what we aspire to be and what we expect of one another. Our values are what attract students, faculty and staff to our campus. They reflect how we impact our community, and more importantly, why we do what we do. Our values represent our character as an institution — and as individuals. Our values are who we are.
Accountability | Integrity | Excellence | Civility | Culture of Care

Statement of Unity
海角社区stands in unity and solidarity with all members of our community, regardless of genetic information, race, color, religion, age, sex, disability, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, marital status, national origin or veteran status. We are proud of the diversity in our students, faculty and staff.
We strongly condemn acts of hate and bigotry as antithetical to the university's core values of mutual respect and civility. Actions and words that seek to deny human beings full membership in the broader moral community on the basis of arbitrary characteristics are intolerable. We stand opposed to violence in language or in action, and we see these as a threat to the mission of 海角社区as a public university that is committed to intellectual and cultural growth and civic awareness.
We pledge to stand with and for those who are the most vulnerable members of our community and to take actions that help our students and fellow employees feel safe and know that they are safe. We affirm UNF's unreserved commitment to student success within a diverse, supportive campus culture. We seek to embody the ideals of a free and democratic society, and we fully support and value each member of our community.
