Strategic Initiatives

In 2017, the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources (AGNR) embarked on a broad-based, grassroots strategic visioning process that yielded over 44,000 comments reflecting important trends and issues affecting our college, state, industries and society. We analyzed and categorized each comment to identify key thematic areas that captured the breadth and depth of AGNR’s expertise and impact on our communities and citizens. From that process, these Strategic Initiatives emerged as our foundation, upon which we will build a stronger and more influential College.
