Ateneo de Naga University, the premier university in Southern Luzon , provides excellent instruction and formation, conducts vigorous research and engages in community service that is ultimately transformative of society, especially in Bikol. It is possible because of its competent and dedicated faculty, staff, administrators, integrated systems and excellent facilities.

It prides itself in its scholarship support and responsive student services.

It attracts highly qualified students and produces graduates formed in the Catholic faith and challenged by Ignatian spirituality. They are globally competent but locally responsive and environmentally sensitive.

Nurtured by Ignatian spirituality, it is a community that is happy to seek truth in divergent cultures, cultivate intellectual life, respect creation, build human community and promote justice.

Thus, the university and its sub-units enter into a group of alliances with institutions and individuals to further its mission.
