Penn Information Systems & Computing
Penn IT Strategic Plan Survey! 
Penn is developing a new University Information Technology Strategic Plan, prioritizing IT activities for the next three to five years. A number of factors make this an opportune time to do this work, including the growing capacity for technology to enable the University’s goals, Penn’s recent strategic investment announcements, the changing nature of work since COVID, and accelerating shifts in the IT landscape.

Led by Information Systems & Computing, the initiative includes broad representation across Penn’s Schools and Centers. An Advisory Council was created to help shape the effort’s approach, review results from its various phases, ensure that it stays aligned with University priorities, and help guide the recommendations toward realistic topics and outcomes.

The project spans four phases: Discovery, Theme Definition, Analysis and Recommendations, and Report. The Discovery phase was designed to capture Penn’s academic and administrative priorities for the next five years and how they may affect technology. Through a broad and inclusive process, four questions are being asked in both individual and group interviews, as well as in an online survey to capture the perspectives of all Penn constituents. 

The team is currently conducting interviews and the survey is open for responses. Further updates will appear as the initiative progresses and can also be followed on its website.
