As we move forward into a new decade, The University of Scranton embraces five bold, transformational strategic goals. Grounded in our mission, this new Strategic Plan will guide our University community as we navigate changes, challenges, and opportunities for the coming five years, though we believe its impact will be felt well beyond.
Although the ways we provide a transformational University of Scranton education may change, our mission remains constant, and our strategic goals and objectives grow directly from this centuries-old foundation. No doubt, the Strategic Plan is lofty in its aspirations, and we launch it in a time of unprecedented change for higher education. But we know that together we will achieve concrete outcomes that will positively impact the lives of our students, our campus community, and our broader Scranton family.
Rev. Scott R. Pilarz, S.J., the University’s 24th and 27th President
