3. Outcomes … Refined strategic goals and objectivesRefined strategic goals and objectives Continue development of “2010 Engineer”Continue development of “2010 Engineer” –Focus on integration of “value-added” components Aggressively market areas of excellence and uniquenessAggressively market areas of excellence and uniqueness –For sustainability and growth

4. “Value-Added” Components Must grow and integrate “non-commodity” fundamentalsMust grow and integrate “non-commodity” fundamentals –Systems design and complex problem solving –Global and societal relevance –Research/creativity and innovation –Business/finance, marketing, entrepreneurial –Project management –Cross-disciplinary experiences

5. Needs for Sustainability and Growth State will continue to fund at a level supportive of technical fundamentalsState will continue to fund at a level supportive of technical fundamentals –Expect us to be very efficient Expansion of our excellence and uniqueness will require new sources of revenueExpansion of our excellence and uniqueness will require new sources of revenue –Multiple non-State partnerships

6. Other Needs New pedagogical methodsNew pedagogical methods –Our Multi-D strategy is only part of story Enhance diversity of facultyEnhance diversity of faculty –Gender and ethnicity –Ability to support and deliver “richer” curriculum Facilities that enable and enhance new pedagogies and curriculumFacilities that enable and enhance new pedagogies and curriculum

7. ExPloration & Innovation Center Changing the Face of Engineering Education Goal: Create a world-class teaching and research space fostering true inter- disciplinary environment for faculty and students at all levels –Create a “show-case” for the execution of such a goal Similar in concept to Ford Center at NW, or Engineering Research Center at WMU, but broader in application
