The IU School of Education is dedicated to making an impact in the field of education. As we look to the future, we must consider the changing landscape of education and the evolving needs of our students, faculty and staff. This strategic plan is intended to guide our efforts over the next five years and help us to continue to be a leader in the field of education. The plan lays out our vision in the areas of research, service and student success, with goals, objectives and strategies for each area.
Five-Year Strategic Plan
Research
We aim to identify and promote high-impact, transformational, interdisciplinary research areas; advance the SOE’s research reputation; and develop partnerships and a community to drive research and innovation.
Service, Leadership, and Outreach
We aim to develop and disseminate educational resources across contexts and populations; engage in collaborative partnerships with more schools and organizations; and engage strategically with stakeholders to expand learning opportunities for students, families, and communities.
Student Success
We aim to work toward the benefit of all stakeholders in SoE programs; evaluate issues of availability and affordability; encourage the development of new programs; and become a leader in the design and use of technology-enhanced active learning spaces to support high-quality teaching.
