strategic plan

The university hopes to have the new residence halls built or under construction by 2022.

The plan will focus on student recruitment, retention and graduation, remotely offered degree programs, increased collaboration with the state’s community colleges and k-12 schools, research funding and private contributions to the university.

The draft plan’s main focus include increases to student recruitment, retention and graduation; degree programs offered online and at UW’s regional centers; collaborations with community colleges and K-12 schools; research funding; startup companies; and private contributions to the university.

The folks over at the Albany County Government emphasize that the input of employees, county leadership and the public is vital to formulate a comprehensive, focused plan.

The process is set to begin Sept. 23, with the Board of Trustees reviewing and approving the final plan in May.
