Institutional Research and Academic Planning
Five-year planning perspectives
Every other year campuses submit to the Office of the President their Five-Year Planning Perspectives which list the anticipated actions to create and/or transfer, consolidate, disestablish, or discontinue undergraduate and graduate degree programs, schools, colleges, and other academic units. With the Perspectives, campuses have the opportunity to gather information useful to their own long-range planning efforts. The Perspectives also support long-range planning at the system level as integrating lists from all ten campuses allows for systemwide analysis of academic plans and creates an opportunity to promote coordination, synergy, and specialization.
The most recent planning cycle is for the 2022 to 2027 period:
