One UND Goals
Provide a strong undergraduate liberal arts foundation.
The challenge is to prepare students to be informed citizens equipped to navigate a rapidly changing employment landscape by providing an education grounded in the human experience, and designed to empower individuals to deal with complexity, diversity, and change. Through a liberal arts education, students prepare for success in a global economy and for informed citizenship, developing a sense of social responsibility, as well as strong and transferable intellectual and practical skills that help students think critically and analytically, work with and understand quantitative and other forms of information, communicate effectively in written and oral forms, and understand and effectively engage with people whose backgrounds and experiences are different from their own.
Metrics
- The number of High Impact Practices (HIPs) completed by students will increase annually until we reach the goal of at least 3 HIPS in each student’s undergraduate career.
- Increase number of students declaring double majors, majors/minors, certificates and/or engaged in guided pathways.
Increase undergraduate, graduate and professional graduation rates.
A growing focus on the cost of higher education and student debt demands delivering value in return for students’ investment of time and money. This is best achieved by striving to help more students to graduate so they access the benefits of a degree.
Metric
- Increase to 34% - based on 2 percentage points higher than average of comparison flagship universities (CFUs).
Deliver more educational opportunity online and on-campus.
UND faces several challenges that hamper its ability to fully attract those who would benefit from the opportunities offered by our programs.

Attract support for the university by actively engaging alumni donors.
These strategic priorities require the support of alumni and donors to be fully achieved.
