Mission and Main Objectives
The mission of Frederick University is the provision of learning opportunities through teaching and research in the areas of science, technology, literature, and the arts, as well as a systematic contribution to the wider social context.
Stemming directly from its mission statement, the functions of Frederick University are based on three core pillars:
Central to the University’s goals is the empowerment of the youth so that they can have a positive impact to the society. Our pledge is that we will assist each of our student to achieve the maximum of their potential and allow them to intellectually blossom. We pride ourselves to be recognized as a student-centric university and this principle is an integral and non-separable part of the organization’s identity.
Strongly believing that a University should manifest itself as a force for good not only for the present but also for the future, in 2019 Frederick University became an institutional member of the United Nations Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN), which brings together universities, NGOs, research institutes, international organisations and governments to develop and promote solutions, policies and public education for sustainable development through the achievement of the17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). As a member of the Network, Frederick University strives to contribute to finding solutions to global challenges, by connecting with other sustainable development experts and collaborating with them on research, solutions initiatives, and policy work. In addition, Frederick University is one of the founding members of the newly established Cyprus branch of the Sustainable Solutions Network, which aims to work closely with all sectors of society and assist Cyprus in creating the necessary roadmaps, strategies, and policies to achieve the SDGs.
The Council of the University recognises that the SDGs directly match and overlap with the core values and goals of the University and to this end they should be strongly promoted and adopted within the operations. Actions are being undertaken to ensure that there is widespread understanding of these goals, identification at departmental level of specific goals that can be served and rethinking of curriculum development and research directions to better promote and support them.
Within this framework, Frederick University is committed to publishing each year a report that focuses on the progress achieved and challenges ahead in relation to the service of the various SDGs.
Frederick University functions from two locations; one in Nicosia, the capital city of Cyprus, and another in Limassol, the second largest city and main port of the island. Both campuses provide modern facilities designed to meet the academic, research, social and recreational needs of the University community that, in spite of the growing number of students and faculty, remains focused on the individual, its needs and aspirations.
The Nicosia campus is the largest one and it is situated in the Pallouriotissa area, just two kilometers from the city center. The campus comprises of several buildings, all within walking distance from one another.
The Limassol campus is located in the Agios Georgios Havouzas area, two kilometers from the city center. The campus consists of a unitary building which contains lecture halls, conference rooms, and computer laboratories.
