The Catholic University for Independent Thinkers
"Fidelity to man requires fidelity to the truth, which alone is the guarantee of freedom and of the possibility to integral human development." – Pope Benedict XVI
University of Dallas graduates have entered a wide-range
of careers. For example, a philosophy major, after studying
law at Yale, served as a special counsel to the White House;
a psychology major joined Texas Instruments as a software
engineer; a modern language major became a pilot for
American Airlines; and a history major entered graduate
school at Oxford University. Science majors have earned
PhD's in humanities, drama majors have gone to medical
school, and theology majors have entered the business
world.
UD students leave with more than the specific
knowledge of their discipline. Armed with the freedom
of a liberal education and the wisdom of the Core, our
graduates have taken on myriad leadership roles, serving
as doctors, teachers, economists, lawyers, politicians,
and even bishops. The extent to which UD students have
immersed themselves in every facet of society is made
possible by UD's unique education. The tools earned by the
rigorous study of the Core texts are not merely additional;
rather, they are foundational to any noble pursuit and
subsequent success.
