Supporting Plans
This Strategic Plan provides a high-level framework to set the direction for the University, focusing on overarching goals and key objectives that define our institutional priorities and values. It is not a tactical or operational document; rather, it provides a shared vision to inform strategic decision-making across the institution. To realize the goals of this Strategic Plan, a set of supporting plans will be developed to address key areas integral to overall success. Each supporting plan will be informed by further consultation and active engagement with our campus community, ensuring diverse perspectives are represented throughout the creation and implementation processes.
Each supporting plan will:
- Be aligned with the overarching Strategic Plan
- Be informed by further consultation and engagement with faculty, staff, students, and partners
- Define the actions, timelines, and responsibilities required to advance the goals
- Include measurable outcomes and performance metrics
- Provide mechanisms for accountability and regular progress reporting
