As UBC passes the halfway point on its strategic plan, Shaping UBC’s Next Century, the time is right for us to revisit it and define the university’s priorities for the next three to five years. A process involving broad community consultations will be announced in the fall.
The ten-year plan entitled Shaping UBC’s Next Century was launched in 2018. Since then, UBC has made great strides in advancing all aspects of the plan. At the same time, the last five years have seen substantial change in the world, including a global pandemic, increased geo-political tensions, and the rise of AI, to name just a few.
By revisiting and refreshing our strategic plan, we can now celebrate and build upon our successes, apply lessons learned, adapt to a changing higher education landscape, and continue our trajectory of transformation, propelling UBC to even greater heights. Notwithstanding challenges, there is no question that the future is bright for UBC.
