Our Strategic Plan
The Faculty of Public and Global Affairs’ strategic plan is the result of a year’s efforts in consultation, discussion, research, thinking, listening, collating, and writing. From the first day of the process, the planning team was committed to rethinking the status quo, while also honouring the strengths that already exist within our faculty. The strategy we adopted is simple: build on those strengths and strengthen our reputation.
Over the next few years, we in the Faculty will work together to accomplish the plan’s goals and periodically report back with our progress. That progress will be shared on this page.
A total of 1,677 undergraduates and graduates participated in our survey—25% of our student population. Students shared excitement about programs, their futures, and their eagerness to be part of a community. They also shared a desire for greater certainty in career outcomes and flexibility in course options. One wrote:
“I really valued the connections and experiences that each of my professors brought to their courses as they…expanded beyond the academic perspective and prepared us for post-graduate employment.”
