The Institute connects Ave Maria University to the marketplace.
It is a differentiated model for university-wide corporate engagement, professional development, and innovation. The Institute is a series of programs for all students, a network of leaders who form them, and a gateway for companies to engage them. Through The Institute, AMU delivers ambassadors to the marketplace.
The Institute is 360-degree personal, professional, and cultural formation that seeks to answer the call of JPII in Ex Corde Ecclesia (23). It is a core suite of professional skills that all leaders need, personal formation to enable one to use those skills, and cultural formation that instills the poise that truth, beauty, and goodness demand for their expression. It is training that harmonizes with AMU's core curriculum and any major.
It is the liberal arts applied.
