STRATEG I C PLAN ACCOMPL I SHMENTS
The 2020-2021 academic year marked the first year of our three-year strategic plan that transitions us to a hub of innovation, inquiry, research and scholarship with an emphasis on three primary themes: superior research and innovation, engagement and outreach, and assessment and effectiveness. The strategic plan utilizes 70 benchmark activities supporting 31 initiatives. Of these benchmarks, 87% were exceeded or achieved. A few of these accomplishments include: • One student was accepted to present at the prestigious Posters at the Hill. • Received 14 student manuscripts to Beyond. • Hosted 91 presentations for Virtual Discovery Day with site visitors from 65 countries. • Supported 23 Summer Undergraduate Research Fellows. • Hosted the 2020 Florida Undergraduate Research Association’s Virtual Fall Statewide Symposium with over 80 participants. • Fostered strong partnerships enhancing experiential learning across campus, including projects with Center for Teaching and Learning Excellence, Philanthropy, Alumni Engagement, Office of Prestigious Awards and Fellowships, and the Honors Program. • Partnering with University Philanthropy to launch the College Philanthropy Councils which awarded over $10,000+ in grants for student research. • Launched a partnership with Astronaut Scholarship Foundation to bring the Astronaut Scholars program to Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University.
