Priorities for the Future
Priorities for the Future is a strategic plan designed to set the course for the next five years for the Krieger School of Arts and Sciences, crafted with the understanding that a robust liberal arts education within a research university must always reach for the next level of excellence.
In the first year of our strategic plan the Krieger School has improved student experiences, faculty growth, and community engagement.
