Starting in May 2024, the university will begin a refresh of the Lead On, University Strategic Plan.
As we approach the halfway point of our Strategic Plan, it’s time for a refresh – a time to celebrate our achievements, build on our successes, and strive for even greater heights of excellence.
At the University of Oklahoma, we believe in the power of collaboration and innovation to drive transformative change. As we embark on a refresh of our Strategic Plan, we invite all members of our university community to contribute their thoughts, ideas, and big-picture visions that will shape our future.
Strategic planning is not just about setting goals; it's about envisioning a future where our university thrives in all aspects – from academic excellence to operational efficiency, from enrollment growth to community impact. It's about identifying our strengths and leveraging them to create new opportunities while mitigating our risks and improving upon our weaknesses. It's about engaging the university community and charting a course that aligns with our core values and mission while continually adapting and responding to a dynamic and ever-evolving landscape.
Thank you for being an integral part of this strategic planning process—we look forward to working together to shape a brighter future for OU!
Disciplined execution of our Strategic Plan will result in: providing affordable academic excellence for our students; promoting students’ intellectual, social, and emotional growth; and preparing students for a life of meaning and impact.
We will also: educate students committed to the pursuit of academic excellence regardless of background; serve and improve society through discovery, creativity, and innovation; and work in partnership with the public and private sectors to advance prosperity and well-being.
At the University of Oklahoma, our Purpose is elegant in its simplicity and profound in its depth:
WE CHANGE LIVES.
