Centers

Xavier's students, faculty and staff are actively engaged in the Greater Cincinnati community and beyond.

Brueggeman Center for Dialogue

The Edward B. Brueggeman center for dialogue at Xavier University is dedicated to providing space and opportunity for dialogue about the critical issues of our age. It is founded upon the belief that the paths that lead to solutions to our most serious problems will emerge out of dialogue. Interreligious dialogue remains the distinguishing characteristic and integrating factor but in order to truly address the critical issues, the conversation must also include the other academic disciplines, representatives from the business community, government and civic society.

 

Xavier Center for Excellence in Education (X-CEED)

X-CEED educates current and future teachers to be highly qualified in science, mathematics and technology, as well as to be committed to providing outstanding experiences in these fields for the elementary and secondary students who they will teach.

Xavier Leadership Center

The Xavier Leadership Center (XLC) was founded on the belief that leadership is a way of living - a way of continuously evolving and advancing our own, and other’s potential. XLC has one focus – working with organizations to build their one true source of sustainable competitive advantage - their people - by innovating the practice of management and leadership.

Xavier Entrepreneurial Center (XEC)

The Xavier entrepreneurial center enriches student’s academic studies and long-range career plans by providing them opportunities to interact with successful entrepreneurs. To this end, the center provides counseling, mentoring, employment opportunities and presentations by speakers from the industry. The center also provides practical information for entrepreneurs in the Greater Cincinnati business community.

Cintas Institute for Business Ethics

The Cintas Institute for Business Ethics seeks to help the Williams College of Business faculty increase their exposure and confidence in the areas of business ethics and social responsibility, enable graduate and undergraduate students to have increased moral courage to do "the hard right, as opposed to the easy wrong", and act as a resource for the local, regional and national business communities.
