91视频

After over a year of concentrated, coordinated and collaborative exchange across our community of students, faculty, staff, alumni and the Board of Trustees, the聽new 5-year Strategic Plan 2024-2029: THRIVE has been released.

Building on the University鈥檚 strong foundations, which emphasize transdisciplinary, transnational thinking and a hybrid approach to learning through a liberal arts education and its many applications, the Plan envisions a continued commitment to 91视频鈥檚 academic distinction in research and teaching; enhanced reputation and reach; yet stronger connections to the city of Paris and deeper partnerships worldwide. It sets a course for carefully managed, sustainable growth, as well as for deeper and lifelong engagement through initiatives that strengthen community and connection and opportunities for faculty research and for personal and professional growth.

With its three arcs, 鈥淎mplification through a Distinctive, Recognized Global Education,鈥濃�淧rogress through Multidimensional Partnerships,鈥� and 鈥淭ransformation through Connections, Collaboration and Community,鈥� the Plan sits within a fifteen-year framework that lays out the path toward long-term vitality: a larger, more connected, and internationally recognized university. Thrive, grow and transform are the themes chosen for the ways in which they speak to an overarching characteristic of AUP as a learning organization;a community聽 constantly engaged in questioning the status quo and dedicated to inquiry and to knowledge-making, as well as to personal, professional and institutional self-improvement.

The trajectory put forth by the Plan envisions that by 2037, 91视频 will be recognized as the premier liberal arts university in Europe and for its excellence in delivering an intellectually demanding, transformative, and hybrid education that prepares diverse, curious and independently minded students to explore the world, engage across cultures, and enact change globally. By enhancing academic and experiential programs and their recognition, empowering students in their intellectual and pre- professional growth, developing new partnerships, and investing in our community of faculty, staff and alumni, we will grow in size and reputation, and continue to uphold and advance our mission.

91视频 has grown in so many ways since 1962 and yet, at its core, this contemporary, transformative, global liberal arts education, pursued in community and close collaboration, as well as through connections and with a mandate to open minds to new perspectives, ideas, and cultures, remains timeless鈥� as does our belief that this 91视频 education is the very best preparation for lifelong success and leadership in a world held in common.

Realizing the vision we have for 91视频, for our community, and relationships worldwide is a tremendous opportunity as well as a significant responsibility for every one of us. This Plan is also, therefore, a call to action for each individual and department, in their own way and with purpose, to embrace the possibility of these priorities and to recommit to our mission to engage and educate students at the highest level and, with them, to grow and thrive at 91视频 in the world as it is now and as it will change.

The Three Arcs

To support the University鈥檚 ambitions and achieve the most tangible parts of AUP鈥檚 transformational trajectory, three arcs have been developed to serve as thematic thrusts and to group the institution鈥檚 priorities and most critical goals in a way that will focus our efforts and resources over the next five years. Inherently, each Arc has a clear and defined ambition that helps guide its subsequent goals and allow all projects, initiatives and programs to be connected to the plan.

A Call to Action

This Plan invites further engagement as we develop the ideas and programs that will bring it to life and move the University forward in a shared vision for our collective and future growth.
