Board meetings and strategic plans from Simmons University
Future in Focus: Vision 2030 is Simmons University's updated strategic plan, designed to position the institution for thriving success in the coming decade by embracing innovation and strengthening programs. The plan is guided by four core pillars: delivering a cohort-based and career-focused undergraduate experience, preparing professionals for advancement through strong graduate programs, nurturing a connected 'One Simmons Community,' and fostering institutional strength through philanthropy. This initiative aims to achieve sustained academic excellence and institutional strength, creating transformative opportunities for students and ensuring lifelong personal and professional impact.
This strategic plan, titled "Building Our Future," outlines Simmons University's vision to strengthen the institution and ensure its long-term thriving in a dynamic higher education environment. It focuses on three main strategic priorities: leveraging assets, building a stronger financial model, and creating a connected community. The plan aims to achieve this through renewed investment in key academic programs such as nursing, health sciences, social work, library and information science, management, and communications, introducing new graduate degree pathways, and fostering an integrated academic community for students, faculty, and staff.
Simmons University's strategic plan, "Building Our Future," addresses challenges faced by many private universities, including declining enrollment and the need for increased revenue. The plan focuses on leveraging assets, building a better financial model, creating a positive campus culture, and establishing four centers of excellence: Student Excellence, Academic Excellence, Operational Excellence, and Inclusive Excellence. These centers will focus on improving student outcomes, enhancing academic offerings, strengthening operations, and promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion. The overall goal is to ensure the long-term financial stability and success of the university while maintaining its commitment to gender equity and its mission.
