Creighton University

Creighton University exists to educate its students with a view to their intellectual expansion, social adequacy, physical development, aesthetic appreciation and spiritual enrichment. Service to others, the importance of family life, the inalienable worth of the individual and appreciation of ethnic and cultural diversity are core values of Creighton.

The ILAC Center in the Dominican Republic is an international, Christian, Ignatian-inspired, collaborative health care and educational organization that exists to promote the integral well-being and spiritual growth of all its participants. It all began at Creighton University with the vision of two Jesuit priests. All of Creighton's ILAC programs emphasize the importance of global vision and understanding in the process of education and successful, well-rounded individuals. To this end, Creighton's ILAC programs offer dental, medical, nursing, pharmacy, law, physical therapy and occupational therapy, undergraduate and high school students, and also to faculty-led groups, medical/surgical teams and other colleges/universities' students, the opportunity to learn, to serve and to be served in the Dominican Republic.

The ILAC Center in the Dominican Republic is housed at "La Mision", Creighton's eight-building campus located 7.5 kilometers outside of Santiago. Located in the second largest city of the Dominican Republic, the ILAC Center provides numerous opportunities for students and professionals to grow personally, professionally and spiritually.
