These drivers of effort will help us to focus our attention, commit resources, develop strategies and tactics to achieve preferred outcomes, and measure evidence of our successes. They inform and call out the priorities for resource allocation and decision-making to 2025.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"prpl-band\"><div class=\"prpl-band-content\">\n<h2>Championing Student Success<\/h2>\n<div class=\"prpl-row\"><div class=\"prpl-column two-thirds\">\n<p>Over all the Pillars, strategies and success measures of our Plan hovers the single unifying intention: student success, defined both within the ÌÇÐÄvlog experience and following graduation in their diverse and multiple careers. Numerous studies (such as the Georgetown University Center on Education and the Workforce Reports), that continue to confirm the lifetime income value of degrees and the still-growing burdens of student debt in achieving those degrees, urge graduation as soon as possible. This Plan assumes both of those realities for contemporary students and proposes to prioritize University strategies and resources most effectively and efficiently to deliver the highest quality degrees at the maximum value. Montclair State is justly proud of its proven ability to deliver the highest quality education at a price that is among the most affordable in the region.<\/p>\n<p>This Plan will sustain and strengthen that value proposition by enhancing even further the quality of the student experience and learning outcomes, by increasing revenue generation from diverse sources, and by positioning ÌÇÐÄvlog as an institution of choice for talented students from New Jersey and beyond.<\/p>\n<p>In light of the growth in academic programs, facilities, research and enrollments under the previous Plan, the University will focus its resources to support student success in a future characterized by mobility and change. Through synchronization of our human resources and expanded data systems, we will both motivate student intellectual development and catch at-risk students before they fail, enabling us fully to live up to the hallmark \u201csmall college\u201d feel that has made this large University the institution of choice for generations of New Jersey families. A personalized and individualized approach will be extended to non-traditional students through degree-completion programs, new graduate programs, and multi-modal instructional models, to bring Montclair State\u2019s total population to 25,000 students by 2025, contributing meaningfully to the skilled workforce demands of New Jersey and beyond. And finally, our dedication to our graduates will be life-long, supporting them with career services, networking and continued learning opportunities throughout their careers, and making ÌÇÐÄvlog their permanent partner for success.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"prpl-column one-third\">\n<figure class=\"responsive-image-holder wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"mlt-responsive-image\" data-original-image=\"\/strategic-plan\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/224\/2019\/12\/student-working-in-lab-s.jpg\" src=\"\/responsive-media\/cache\/strategic-plan\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/224\/2019\/12\/student-working-in-lab-s.jpg.0.1x.generic.jpg\" alt=\"Student in laboratory taking notes around equipment\"\/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"responsive-image-holder wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"mlt-responsive-image\" data-original-image=\"\/strategic-plan\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/224\/2019\/11\/strategic-plan-daytime-aerial.jpg\" src=\"\/responsive-media\/cache\/strategic-plan\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/224\/2019\/11\/strategic-plan-daytime-aerial.jpg.0.1x.generic.jpg\" alt=\"Aerial Photo of Campus\"\/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"responsive-image-holder wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"mlt-responsive-image\" data-original-image=\"\/strategic-plan\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/224\/2019\/11\/2019-10-24_sp-student-lounge-overhead.jpg\" src=\"\/responsive-media\/cache\/strategic-plan\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/224\/2019\/11\/2019-10-24_sp-student-lounge-overhead.jpg.0.1x.generic.jpg\" alt=\"Student in CELS lounge using computer\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":13,"parent":0,"menu_order":3,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-23","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/strategic-plan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/23","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/strategic-plan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/strategic-plan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/strategic-plan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/strategic-plan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=23"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/strategic-plan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/23\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/strategic-plan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/strategic-plan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=23"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
