Phases

We expect this effort to last through spring 2025 and include administrators, faculty, students, staff, researchers, governance groups, community stakeholders, regional contacts, and vendor partners. It features three phases:

 Phase 1: Discovery & Visioning 

Phase 1 focused on gathering perspectives from a broad and diverse array of University stakeholders. We solicited feedback about opportunities, challenges, and barriers that the University faces as an institution and specifically related to the future of digital technology and how it can help advance the institution's goals. The data we collected informed the development of the high-level IT strategic pillars and goals.

 Phase 2: Strategic Choice & Design 

Phase 2 focused on refining the elements of the Horizon, taking into consideration reasonable expectations of resources to realistically achieve the strategic goals and initiatives. The conclusion of this phase was marked by the production of the Horizon.

 Phase 3: Refine and Finalize (In Progress)

In Phase 3, we will focus on refining the Horizon into its final form by socializing it with the entire University community and collecting feedback.
