It’s time to transform the way we deliver on our mission in order to better and more equitably serve our students, faculty and staff, and to position ourselves for long-term financial resilience.
In support of our mission as Colorado’s comprehensive doctoral-granting public research university, ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ Boulder has a vision to be a leader in addressing the humanitarian, social and technological challenges of the 21st century. Through Academic Futures and related initiatives in recent years—and in alignment with the University of Colorado system strategic plan adopted in 2021—our campus has made significant strides in advancing the pillars of discovery and impact, affordability and student success, diversity, inclusion, equity and access, and fiscal strength.
Building upon this momentum, we are at a critical moment to accelerate transformative changes to how we operate as a campus as we begin to see a growing number of peer institutions facing structural deficits in their financial models that are causing deep operational cuts.
With the goal of enabling student success through the success of our faculty and staff, campus leadership is focusing on a number of priority deliverables over the next three to five years to set the campus up for long-term success.
