Announcing Our Implementation of the Academic Master Plan

September 29, 2022

Dear Faculty, Staff, and Students:

Rutgers University–New Brunswick is poised to begin the implementation of our Academic Master Plan (AMP), the roadmap to excellence that embodies the values you expressed last year through multiple town halls, surveys that yielded more than 4,000 responses, and stakeholder meetings that included undergraduate and graduate students, faculty, staff, and administrators.

At a public forum on Wednesday, September 28, we presented an ambitious suite of AMP initiatives that will transform the student experience, sharpen our focus on the health and wellbeing of our community, direct our research power toward society’s greatest challenges, and more. Details can be found in the video of this week’s event and on the Academic Master Plan website and Chancellor-Provost Strategic Priorities and Initiatives page.

Reflecting the values you expressed, these Rutgers–New Brunswick priorities aim to drive equitable student success through Access to Academic Excellence; attend to the wellbeing of our Beloved Community; and deepen research, community, and economic engagement to benefit the Common Good.

Our Campuswide Call for Ideas

Last year we called upon you—our faculty, staff, and students—to help us develop the Academic Master Plan. We will soon call upon you again to take an active part in its implementation. There are three ways you can participate:

  1. Visit the Chancellor-Provost Strategic Priorities and Initiatives website to learn more about these initiatives, and contact the Chancellor-Provost Office to express your interest in joining the implementation teams. This office will work with the deans and divisional leadership on nominations for the teams.
  2. In the coming weeks we will announce the Chancellor-Provost Challenge, a call for new campus-wide initiatives to fulfill the goals of the AMP. Great ideas can come from any member of our campus community, and we look forward to your proposals.
  3. Also in the coming weeks, we will issue a call for our campus community to support the development of strategic initiatives within the school and divisional units. Such proposals will be reviewed and endorsed by divisional leadership prior to being considered by the Chancellor-Provost Office.

As we have said before, cultivating academic excellence is not about building something new at Rutgers, but about building on what we already are and moving toward a vision of what can be. These new Academic Master Plan initiatives are our first steps toward that vision. We are excited to embark on this journey with you, and we invite you to help us shape Rutgers–New Brunswick’s future together.

Sincerely,

Francine Conway
Chancellor-Provost, Rutgers University–New Brunswick

Jonathan Holloway
President and University Professor
