The university states that its mission is to give students a university education at international standards and infuse them with enthusiasm to constantly reach for new horizons. Great care is also taken to endow them with a respect for national and universal humane values. The university also aims to play an active role in promoting cooperation between Azerbaijan and Turkey.
Combining an eighty-year experience of law, administration and technical know-how of Turkey and positive sides of a completely different political and administrative background Azerbaijan comes from, the University has undertaken a role of being an educational bridge between Turkey and Azerbaijan.

Famous quotes containing the word mission:
“Perhaps the mission of those who love mankind is to make people laugh at the truth, to make truth laugh, because the only truth lies in learning to free ourselves from insane passion for the truth.”
—Umberto Eco (b. 1932)
“Not in vain is Ireland pouring itself all over the earth. Divine Providence has a mission for her children to fulfill; though a mission unrecognized by political economists. There is ever a moral balance preserved in the universe, like the vibrations of the pendulum. The Irish, with their glowing hearts and reverent credulity, are needed in this cold age of intellect and skepticism.”
—Lydia M. Child (1802–1880)
“... [a] girl one day flared out and told the principal “the only mission opening before a girl in his school was to marry one of those candidates [for the ministry].” He said he didn’t know but it was. And when at last that same girl announced her desire and intention to go to college it was received with about the same incredulity and dismay as if a brass button on one of those candidate’s coats had propounded a new method for squaring the circle or trisecting the arc.”
—Anna Julia Cooper (1859–1964)
