- Being a regional center of excellence, which in interaction with the public and private sectors at both national and international levels contribute to regional and national development of industries and professions.
- To develop new education and training in educational, health professional, graphic and technical-commercial area.
The university college's main office is in Haderslev, Denmark. Other locations are Kolding, Aabenraa and Sønderborg.
