Generated from a year-long effort across campus, the draft Academic Futures report offers a new academic vision designed to transform ²ÊÃñ±¦µä to a leading public research institution for the 21st century.
²ÊÃñ±¦µä's next national accreditation is scheduled for 2020. In preparation, faculty, students and staff across campus will be discussing the university's plans, priorities and vision.
²ÊÃñ±¦µä is undertaking a new approach to engaging in strategic financial alignment, continuing to transition the campus to a total funds approach that supports its bold initiatives.
²ÊÃñ±¦µä embarked on this initiative a year ago to improve the campus experience for all first-year students. The initiative has now entered the second of two phases, Buffs First Forward.
The Strategic Facilities Visioning project team last week began its "deep dive" engagement with colleges, schools and support organizations from across campus, laying the groundwork for the year ahead.
