The strategic plan defines five key priorities with 54 embedded goals that will send the university into a new era of development and success by creating new and diversified revenue streams, expanding educational opportunity and innovating life-changing research and also academic and non-academic initiatives. The implementation team will develop plans to deliver the university鈥檚 goals over the five years of the plan.
