2030 Action Team

The 2030 Action Plan provides the framework for UWM to advance student success and fulfill our mission as a research and access institution that enhances and improves the quality of life for all in southeastern Wisconsin.

The 2030 Action Plan includes eight priorities focused on success for UWM and our students. The work involved in developing these goals is detailed in the 2030 Implementation Team Final Report (Spring 2021).

Implementation Teams were formed around each of the eight priorities and have worked continuously towards their goals since the report publication in 2021. Please click on any of the priorities below for summaries of work completed over the past two academic years.

Based on work accomplished to date, initiatives that were part of the Becoming Student Centric/Moon Shot for Equity, Increasing Diversity and Inclusion, Aligning and Engaging Workforce, Updating the Budget Model, and Growing Endowment have transitioned into on-going actions incorporated into university operations. The Revising Curriculum team is expected to complete their work (through governance approvals) in Fall 2023; after this time the work would likely transition to a new work group to facilitate implementation. The Redesigning the Research infrastructure team have institutionalized their actions with a recommendation for a new work group to address implementation of recommendations relating to faculty workload. Finally, the Reassessing Unit Alignment team has completed their work with the newly aligned colleges active July 1, 2023.

See the 2030 Action Plan Status Update and Recommendations report here (October 2023).

Over the next academic year, the 2030 Action Plan will be evaluated and reviewed in the context of current and emerging issues facing UWM to develop recommendations for the next phase of our work.
