Designing DePaul

Designing DePaul Strategic Plans

At the beginning of the 2023-24 academic year, we launched Designing DePaul, a framework to drive our university forward to become a national leader in quality higher education. Every college, school and administrative area used that framework to design their strategic plans, which are now available for university community input. We will use the strategic plans to chart our priorities, our connections, and our path forward. The plans are meant to be living documents that we will adapt as the needs of the university evolve.

Faculty, staff and students are encouraged to share their feedback on the strategic plans. Your thoughtful comments and edits will ensure that the final plans drive DePaul forward with the support of the entire community. The open comment period will close at the end of the fall quarter.
