The School is committed to developing and advancing a culture of strategic planning, assessment and continuous quality improvement. To be the preeminent school of pharmacy where leaders in practice, education, and research are developed and nurtured, the School must be strategic and bold, think differently, and continually identify opportunities that will differentiate us and position us for innovation and sustained excellence. The School is committed to the successful implementation, execution, and monitoring of this strategic plan and to a strategic planning process that actively engages faculty, staff, and key stakeholders and links development and resources directly to the strategic plan. In an era of increasing accountability at all levels of higher education and the need to better utilize data to drive planning and quality improvement, the School must take measureable steps to ensure that processes are in place to better manage, analyze, and use data to advance our strategic initiatives, our division and unit goals, and student learning. Through engagement of faculty, staff, and students, the School aspires to foster a culture of strategic planning, assessment, and continuous quality improvement.
