Limitless: Our road map for the future

Strategic Plan 2020-2025

 

Now, STU is on the verge of something extraordinary. Led by President David A. Armstrong, J.D., our University has undergone intense self-reflection, to better understand where we are and where we want to go. Based on three goals — Devotion, Opportunity, and Results — this 5-year strategic plan builds upon our current strong foundation to propel STU forward, and ensure long-term growth and sustainability. The opportunities for our University and our students are limitless.

Infinite possibilities come to those who believe!

Steering Committee for the Strategic Plan (SCSP)

The process began with a comprehensive strategic thinking document developed by President Armstrong and a 30-person strategic planning steering committee. Next, 50 people in workgroups formulated our three goals. With more than 13,000 students, faculty, staff, alumni and community members surveyed, everyone had an opportunity to be involved in the strategic planning initiative.
