Since the Mount's founding in 1920 by the Sisters of Charity, we have made serving the needs of our students and the community our core mission. As a nationally recognized institution, we continue to live a culture of ethics and service in everything we do.
Mount St. Joseph University, established by the Sisters of Charity of Cincinnati, opened its doors to the first 20 students in 1920 as the first Catholic University for women in Southwestern Ohio.
With the growth of student enrollment, the Sisters of Charity made plans to develop the property at the intersection of Delhi and Neeb roads and opened a new campus in the fall of 1962. In 1986, the University was formally declared coeducational. Though incorporated under a Board of Trustees in 1972, the University remains a sponsored ministry of the Sisters of Charity.
Today the University serves a diverse coeducational student population of undergraduate and graduate students.
The Mount lives a culture of ethics and service to others. Sure, building confidence academically and professionally is essential, but so is giving back to others – here and around the world.
The Mount prepares you as a critical thinker, skilled communicator, and significant professional, and yet we have long recognized that there is more to life than a career. It is also about being productive citizens and ethical leaders ready, willing, and able to contribute to the greater good.
Inspiring you to lead a meaningful life is what we mean when we say it is about something much bigger than ours.Mount St. Joseph University is a Catholic academic community grounded in its founders' spiritual values and vision, the Sisters of Charity. The University educates its students through interdisciplinary liberal arts and professional curricula emphasizing values, integrity, and social responsibility.
The Mount is an emerging force in ethical leadership development, integrating curricular and co-curricular learning about ethics and responsible leadership into a Mount education at a time when our world sorely needs it. A distinctive, comprehensive, and highly relevant undergraduate experience designed to raise student awareness and conscientiousness and ability and commitment to act.
The Center for Ethical Leadership (CEL) reflects Mount St. Joseph University's commitment to ethics, values, service, and the integration of life and learning. The values and history of the Sisters of Charity of Cincinnati provide an ideal model for engaged and ethical leadership practice. The CEL develops and promotes that model by serving as a Hub—interfacing with the campus and the community—to leverage the Mount story, mission, and resources to advance ethical leadership and innovative socially responsible practices designed to maintain and promote healthy, vibrant organizations and communities that are great places for individuals to grow and flourish. The CEL offers programming to local business and community organizations, encourages the interaction between local business and community organizations and the campus community, and provides support to enhance the integration of ethical leadership into curricular and co-curricular programs that shape a distinctively Mount student life experience.
The Office of Diversity & Inclusion is committed to building a campus environment that values and respects every person, regardless of gender, age, race, cultural background, religion, nationality, or beliefs. In keeping with Mount St. Joseph University's mission to "embrace the diversity of cultures and beliefs," we seek to ensure a positive, supportive climate in which all feel welcome.
Many of the events and services we provide not only benefit the Mount's culturally diverse students but the entire Mount community by promoting diversity awareness, enriching the educational experience, and enhancing the quality of student life.
