Strategic Plan (2013-2020)
For more than 50 years, the College of Education & Human Development (CEHD) has experienced significant student and resource growth, been recognized for its development of effective teachers, increased external funding and assembled an internationally recognized faculty. The college has made great strides since its founding and our future is even brighter. For the CEHD to reach its potential in leading change on local, state, national and international levels, a clear and articulated vision is necessary. With this spirit, we created this strategic plan.
