  • Florida International University University Work Plan Presentation for Board of Governors June 2015 Meeting
    Work2015 Plan Work Plan Florida International University University Work Plan Presentation for Board of Governors June 2015 Meeting STATE UNIVERSITY SYSTEM of FLORIDA Board of Governors 2015 UNIVERSITY WORK PLAN FLORIDA INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY INTRODUCTION The State University System of Florida has developed three tools that aid in guiding the System’s future. 1) The Board of Governors’ 2025 System Strategic Plan is driven by goals and associated metrics that stake out where the System is headed; 2) The Board’s Annual Accountability Report provides yearly tracking for how the System is progressing toward its goals; 3) Institutional Work Plans connect the two and create an opportunity for greater dialogue relative to how each institution contributes to the System’s overall vision. These three documents assist the Board with strategic planning and with setting short-, mid- and long-term goals. They also enhance the System’s commitment to accountability and driving improvements in three primary areas of focus: 1) academic quality, 2) operational efficiency, and 3) return on investment. The Board will use these documents to help advocate for all System institutions and foster even greater coordination with the institutions and their Boards of Trustees. Once a Work Plan is approved by each institution’s respective Boards of Trustees, the Board of Governors will review and consider the plan for potential acceptance of 2015-16 components. Longer-term components will inform future agendas of the Board’s Strategic Planning Committee. The Board’s acceptance of a work plan does not constitute approval of any particular component, nor does it supersede any necessary approval processes that may be required for each component.
