战略计划，2019-2024年

自2018年以来，Deanne H. 埃米利奥, JD, 督导委员会, and University 教师 和工作人员 have been hard at work brainstorming, 规划, and executing 格温内斯仁慈大学’s new 战略计划.

The 战略计划 serves as a five-year roadmap for the University, detailing how it will adapt to the constantly shifting higher education landscape. Amidst exciting projects and opportunities, such as new 健康care Innovation Campus, the plan will also keep the University’s goals and growth in line with our mission and values.

制定计划

Planning kicked off in March 2018 with a GMercyU Community Day, which brought the campus community together to submit their thoughts and 的想法 of where they saw the University heading in five years. 活动由CREDO组织, an organization that specializes in strategic 规划 for higher education institutions. CREDO is our partner through the 战略计划ning process and implementation. 使用反馈, 的想法, and views gathered from the University community, CREDO helped us develop a Strategy Map — a visual representation of our institution’s strategy to achieve our goals:

The map details the four themes at the core of the 战略计划: Distinctive Teaching and Learning; Transformative 学生 Experience; Empowered Community; and Compelling Brand. Each pillar houses various objectives and initiatives specific to that theme:

Distinctive Teaching and Learning: This theme is focused on developing cutting-edge new programs as well as existing GMercyU programs. It also includes a focus on innovative spaces and technology for our students.

变革性学生体验: This theme is focused on our students’ experiences at GMercyU and how we can fulfill their needs and exceed their expectations. This includes developing 合作伙伴关系 for experiential learning opportunities, 比如实习, 临床, 出国留学, 学生教学, 本科研究, 和更多的.

授权社区: In order to support our students, we need to have a strong and empowered community. This theme includes initiatives focused on improving technology and systems so 教师 和工作人员 can work more efficiently and proactively. This theme also focuses on our Campus Master Plan, which includes plans to develop and utilize the new East Campus.

引人注目的品牌: Centered around creating WOW experiences for our community and crafting irresistible stories, this theme includes initiatives involving alumni, 新的传统和经验, 和更多的 support for student success.

透过策略计划, the University also has developed a Vision Statement to help guide the University as we embark on this ambitious plan. 愿景宣言, along with the overall plan and implementation, is meant to inspire everyone in the GMercyU community to work together to accomplish the overall goals of the 战略计划.
 

A university of first choice that unleashes your potential to meet the next great need.

愿景声明

 
2018年8月, volunteers from across campus began working on Theme Teams, created to start developing individual initiatives within each of the four themes. All four Theme Teams consisted of approximately 60 members of the University community who gathered during the months of August and September for a total of four two-hour meetings. Based on the work of the Theme Teams, the 战略计划 draft was completed in October 2018.

Once the draft of the plan was in place, President D’埃米利奥 hosted a Community Affirmation of the 战略计划 event in November 2018 where 教师 和工作人员 could offer their feedback before it was submitted to the Board of Trustees for approval. 12月5日, 2018, the 战略计划 was enthusiastically approved by our Board of Trustees, and we excitedly prepared for its implementation in January 2019.
