Review of IUPUI Mission-Related Goals and Action Steps

In 2005 the IUPUI faculty and the Trustees of Indiana University approved a new mission statement for IUPUI that complements the vision, values, and goals approved in 2002 (see http://www.iport.iupui.edu/).

In 2006 Executive Vice Chancellor Uday Sukhatme appointed action teams to develop new implementation strategies for each of the 10 mission-related goals. Relevant action steps derived from this process are listed with each goal in this document.

IUPUI faculty and staff are invited to comment on the action steps. To enter comments on individual items, sections, or the document as a whole, use the Web template. Please submit comments by Friday, Feb. 27, 2009.
