Universitat Internacional de Catalunya
Strategic plan
Here is the general outline of the strategic plan, as approved by the governing body.
Mission
The Universitat Internacional de Catalunya (UIC Barcelona) aims to offer a service to society through education and scientific research aimed at providing the skills required for the workplace, as well as a scientific, cultural and human education for students. The University also aims to carry out charitable endeavours, as well as cultural and environmentally sustainable activities.
Strategic Plan 2015-2022
Background
UIC Barcelona's Strategic Plan for 2010-2015 was presented in September 2011.
This plan was a major milestone for the university because, for the first time, it drafted a project for the future based on specific plans of action and a follow-up process aimed at achieving "a high-quality university in terms of teaching, management, technological development and communication, with the foundations of competitive research".
The plan consists of eight key aims with objectives, lines of action, indicators and corresponding figures.
In order to draft, design and define the new Strategic Plan 2015-2022, which is shown below, the plan mentioned above has been taken as a reference point, mainly in terms of defining the key goals and follow-up actions to assess the suitability of the new Strategic Plan.
Design and structure
The Strategic Plan has been designed taking into account five key areas: teaching, research, an international approach, knowledge transfer and resources. Each goal is associated with a series of strategic approaches and corresponding objectives, which will result in the appropriate actions to be carried out. Each action, in turn, is defined based on indicators and the value attributed to each indicator, and these are used to monitor the different actions proposed.
