Antioch University Los Angeles is an independent institution that strives to provide an innovative and challenging undergraduate and graduate education for adults. An Antioch University education works to empower the student to act responsibly and to affect personal, social and environmental change within a global context.

Overall, the Antioch University approach emphasizes:

• The development of the student as a whole person
• The integration of academic and experiential learning
• Creative, critical and independent thinking
  

This approach to education springs from Antioch University’s long-standing heritage of making learning meaningful and vital while promoting social justice. Given Antioch University’s student centered approach to education and its commitment to intellectual, social, cultural and ethnic diversity, the faculty’s primary duties are to teach and advise, and to engage in the intellectual dialogue of their profession. In addition, faculty, staff and students work with local communities to provide leadership and service, participating as broadly as possible in civic affairs.

At Antioch University, we believe that change begins with one person.
