Measuring progress and outcomes
Higher education has gone global, and working towards our goals and objectives in this area requires unwavering commitment and careful planning. As part of the 2013-2018 Strategic Plan’s Accountability Framework, the Global Prominence and Internationalization Theme Team identified how the learning and research environment will be measured to ensure it prepares students, faculty and staff to function in an increasingly integrated, global environment.
