Faculty of Arts Strategic Plan 2017-22
Setting the stage to engage, inspire and discover
Energizing Arts 2017-2022
Energizing Arts 2017-22 – the result of extensive consultation between September 2016 and March 2017 – sets the direction for the Faculty of Arts over the next five years. Through more than 350 points of contact, undergraduate and graduate students, faculty, staff, alumni and community leaders helped to inform the strategy by sharing their thoughts and opinions through focus groups, online surveys and written feedback.
The strategy is built upon three priorities:
- Critical and Creative Research, Teaching and Learning »
- Engaging Communities »
- Citizenship, Diversity and Inclusion »
The Faculty of Arts has established meaningful goals, achievable actions, key responsibilities and measurable outcomes for each priority. Through the implementation of this strategy and the realization of its goals, the Faculty of Arts will make a difference in the lives of our students, faculty, staff and alumni, and in our community, nation and world.
