Working together as a community, we have been developing and refining CSU's next strategic plan over the past six months. Our goal has been to design a set of priorities that would guide programs and initiatives starting in 2025 and through 2030. Throughout the fall, the Strategic Planning Task Force and I have held numerous information sessions to update you on elements of the emerging plan, and we have collected and reviewed hundreds of feedback submissions from students, faculty, staff members, alumni and community partners. Your input had a substantial impact on the final design of the plan.
Our aim from the outset was to craft a series of strategic statements, focused priorities and key performance metrics from which colleges and divisions could then establish their own, related goals. As planned, we submitted this completed strategic framework to the CSU Board of Trustees for their review at their November meeting, which was held earlier today. I am pleased to inform you that the members of the Board of Trustees approved CSU's updated mission, vision and values statements. In addition, they voted unanimously to endorse our first set of priorities and our strategic direction for the next five years.
Our new strategic plan — Cleveland State United — is centered on the following:
|
|
|
Cleveland’s University. Infinite Opportunity.
|
We are in and of the city of Cleveland. We leverage our unique location and strategic partnerships to equip learners with knowledge and future-ready skills. Through innovative research, dedicated service, and exceptional talent, we address the evolving needs of our community.
|
|
|
CSU aspires to be a national leader in social and economic mobility. We will be a great place to learn and work.
|
|
|
Collaborating with Community
Serving Students
Unleashing Creativity
|
Additional details regarding Cleveland State United, including our three priorities, are available on our website.
We will hold a Cleveland State United launch event in January 2025, after the start of the spring semester to share further detail on this new plan and the metrics we will monitor to track our progress.
I am immensely proud of the collaboration, input and passion from our community that is represented in Cleveland State United. To each member of our community who participated in an information session or provided feedback, thank you. And I offer my sincere gratitude to the members of the Strategic Planning Task Force for their remarkable work.
We are Cleveland State University.
