Strategic Planning

An extensive process was launched in 1999 to create a strategic plan to guide the University of Georgia for the first decade of the 21st century. A Strategic Planning Advisory Group, appointed by the president, produced a printed document that included a strategic plan for the institution as a whole, as well as strategic plans for principal units within the institution.

The theme of the institutional strategic plan is “Building Georgia’s World University.” Three strategic directions were identified to guide program development and allocation of resources:

• Building the new learning environment
• Research investment
• Competing in a global economy
  

From the dissemination of the ten-year plan in 2000 until reorganization in 2007, the Office of Institutional Effectiveness periodically evaluated and updated the strategic plan, working in concert with the Strategic Planning Committee of University Council. Revisions to the institutional plan are incorporated in the executive summary below.

The Office of Institutional Strategic Planning, established in February 2007, is headed by Associate Provost Robin J. Tricoli. Under her leadership, the Strategic Planning Advisory Group and the University Council’s Strategic Planning Committee will continue to review and monitor the 2000-2010 plan while designing a process to generate a new strategic plan for the next phase of university growth and development.
