The traditional model for structuring institutions of higher education has value but also is incomplete in its ability to meet the needs of students now and in the future. As a forward-thinking university, we will deeply redesign structure, process, and practice to increase our ability to deliver the career-ready leadership skills to meet the clear value expected by students.
