UMD Program Prioritization Initiative
UMD conducted a comprehensive Program Prioritization initiative during 2013-14 to review the entire span of programs, courses, and services delivered in relation to how they each aligned with our mission and how they positioned UMD for growth. The goal of the Program Prioritization initiative was to manage and allocate our financial resources in ways that would best meet the needs of our students and our community.
Chancellor Black led UMD through this Program Prioritization initiative with the help of the Vice Chancellors, Deans, and Directors, but everyone on campus was involved at the program level. Criteria and weights for the criteria were developed corroboratively in alignment with UMD's strategic plan, mission, and vision, with an additional focus on financial sustainability.
