This idea encapsulates our values and goals and is literally incorporated into our logo and the physical design of our campus. As an international university, we exemplify the highest international standards in higher education, and our systems and methods endeavor to adopt the best practices of leading universities worldwide. Westlake University strives to serve the global community and promote developments for the common good of all humanity.
