Mission and Vision

Pegaso International aims to build and disseminate a platform of knowledge under a global perspective, investing more in education, in basic training and in life-long learning with a focus on the outlook for the future.

The institution's digital technologies foster equality of opportunity and ensure social integration. It is by creating alternatives and feasible conditions of education, training, employment and social welfare that a fertile ground is ensured for dialogue and peace. Given its strategic geo-political and cultural characteristics, Pegaso International has opted to operate in Malta. With full cognizance of the competitive and global challenges; Pegaso International will spare no effort to succeed in this ambitious project.

Pegaso International's main goals are:

• To provide a competitive undergraduate and postgraduate education that offers a global perspective and is characterised by high-quality teaching and distinctive study programmes;
• To enrich learning and working environments by providing a multilingual community that attracts and supports an international staff and student population;
• To provide opportunities and resources that facilitate work / life balance.

Pegaso International embraces the philosophy of Sustainable Development and its priority values are:

• The development of the personal qualities of the students in order to achieve the maximum of their intellectual potential and an international character of higher education as a means of achievement and maintenance of high-quality standards;
• The recruitment of international academic staff composed of lecturers from foreign universities and international academies;
• The encouragement of students' initiatives and skills for self-learning, acquiring 'portable' knowledge, key competencies and skills.

In line with this approach, Pegaso International identifies the concepts of INNOVATION, SUSTAINABILITY, INCLUSION and COMPETENCE as the key words on which to build the University of the future, always placing people at the centre of its choices and strategies. In this way, Pegaso International participates in the development of a model of sustainable learning based on the new productive and organisational models of Industry 5.0.

In pursuing its mission, Pegaso International adopts an educational model that places the STUDENT AT THE CENTRE OF INNOVATION, while the principles of LIFELONG LEARNING are combined with the use of the new DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES, aware that the challenge of the coming years will increasingly be dependent on the quality of the educational offer and its ability to offer the tools necessary to meet the changes of the present times.

To achieve these objectives, Pegaso International's mission in the coming years will revolve around four key terms

1. INNOVATION: a transversal element across all the institution's activities, functional in proposing a constantly updated teaching model and training offer;
2. SUSTAINABILITY: the Pegaso International model assumes the concepts of Environmental, Social and Governance sustainability as part of its institutional mission to contribute to the achievement of the United Nations 2030 Agenda;
3. INCLUSION: Pegaso International believes that research and knowledge are extraordinary tools of social cohesion, necessary to make individuals more aware and therefore giving more freedom of choice to combat gender inequalities and social or territorial inequalities;
4. SKILLS: the increasingly rapid changes the world is undergoing with the double digital and ecological transition urge Pegaso International to identify new research paths and to offer new training tools for those attending undergraduate studies for the first time or who wish to upgrade their skills.

Welcome Note

Pegaso International’s great challenge arises from Malta, thanks to its strategic political and cultural function in the Euro- Mediterranean area. We aim to build and disseminate a platform of knowledge under a global perspective, investing more in education, in basic training and in life-long learning with a focus on the outlook for the future. Our digital technologies can foster equality of opportunity and ensure social integration. It is only by creating alternatives and thus conditions of education, training, employment and social welfare that we create a fertile ground for dialogue and peace. Pegaso International is facing a competitive and global challenge: we are working hard at our best to succeed in our ambitious project.
