Strategic planning

To help guide Penn State, Barron, and University leadership developed an institution-wide strategic plan for 2016 through 2020, comprising five overarching thematic priorities: Transforming Education, Enhancing Health, Stewarding Our Planet’s Resources, Advancing the Arts and Humanities, and Driving Digital Innovation.

The plan has spawned five signature initiatives, including One Penn State 2025 (Transforming Education), the Consortium to Combat Substance Abuse (Enhancing Health), the Humanities Institute (Advancing the Arts and Humanities), the Center for Immersive Experiences (Driving Digital Innovation) and the Consortium for Integrated Energy Systems (Stewarding Our Planet’s Resources).

To continue the plan’s momentum and realize various initiatives, Penn State’s Board of Trustees approved extending the plan through 2025.
