10 Breakout Group Pre-Retreat Reports

11 Education Implementation Group Pre-Retreat Meeting January 14, 2015 Members: Harmonosky, Aydin, Masters, Savage, Bilen, Freeman, Litzinger, Johnson The Education Goals Implementation Group met on Wednesday, January 14. The following was accomplished first: Reviewed the objective of the retreat Reviewed the retreat agenda Reviewed and briefly discussed the five specific Education Goals Considered the different roles of group members during the retreat (e.g. Rapporteur) The group then discussed what would be the most effective work that could be accomplished prior to the retreat so that the group could be efficient and effective reviewing the enabling actions during the break out session. The consensus was: For pre-retreat work, Goals 3 and 4 both deal with graduate education, so they will be considered by the same subset of people. The group split into four teams of two members each that will focus on a goal (or the Goal 3 & 4 package). Group members self-selected their goal based on their interest. Each team will review the enabling actions, metrics, etc. and make any suggested changes they think would be good. A Box folder was created for each team to upload their suggested changes, so all members of the group could view files. At the retreat, using these revised spreadsheets as a starting point, then entire Education group will discuss each goal and enabling actions and hopefully come to a consensus.

12 Research Implementation Group Pre-Retreat Meeting January 13, 2015 Members: Theresa Mayer, Chimay Anumba, Judith Todd, Karen Thole, Craig Colborn, George Lesieutre, Susie Sherlock (recording). Missing: Cheng Dong The Research group met with the goal of discussing and defining the College of Engineering Strategy Implementation Plan, specifically the five goals assigned to the Research breakout group, prior to the Executive Retreat on January 23rd. This committee is charged with understanding, discussing, and bringing to completion Research Goals 6-9 and Implementation Goal 10 by adding, editing, or deleting the existing enabling actions. The current worksheets setting forth those goals (sent by L. Tressler) were provided to the committee members, and discussion focused on reviewing and defining the exact wording of each of the goals, reviewing the column heading titles, and reviewing the enabling actions for each of the goals, with the purpose of ensuring that the members share a common understanding of the items which have already been defined and those that still need discussion and change. Theresa led this discussion and provided opportunity for questions and comments. Lively discussion ensued and all members were fully engaged in understanding the charge to the committee, which action items must be completed, and the timeline for completion so that the committee will be prepared and ready to go for the breakout sessions at the Retreat on Friday, January 23rd. Members of this breakout group were asked to review their electronic copy of the Strategy Implementation Plan and to add comments directly onto the worksheets. Once completed, they are asked to forward their electronic copy to Theresa/Susie, who will work to compile the comments/questions/suggestions into a usable format for the Retreat breakout session. Members were asked to send their comments by January 21, and to come to the Retreat with their thoughts and ideas so that by the end of the Executive Retreat the Research Goals on the Strategic Implementation Plan would be ready for completion.

13 Governance Implementation Group Pre-Retreat Meeting January 16, 2015 Members: Atchley, Acharya, Mason, Heinemann, Sampsell, Sharer, Marsh, Nembhard The Governance Breakout Group is tasked with completing the implementation plans for Strategic Goals # The Group met on Friday, January 16, the day after the discussion of the retreat at the UEC meeting. Therefore, the department heads in the group had the benefit of that discussion. Prior the Group meeting the researcher (Paul Heinemann) provided a set of slides to guide the discussion. During the meeting the group focused on: Understanding the charge and remit Reviewing the goals under its purview Reviewing the draft implementation plan spreadsheets Deciding how to proceed The Group decided that each member should review the draft spreadsheets for each goal rather than assigning certain goals to certain members. It was recognized however that the goals having to do with the financial reorganization should fall principally to the Director of Finance. It was agreed that members would provide preliminary feedback by noon, Wednesday, January 21. The feedback received from the members were reviewed and organized by one of the Co-Chairs with the significant assistance of the Senior Associate Dean s staff. Two sets of slides were prepared for the retreat. The first set pre-populates the report-out template to save time during the retreat. The second set was created for the 5-minute overview at the opening session. The template includes: Group Membership Strategic Goals under the Groups purview Focus points for the retreat Agenda for the breakout The governance template was shared with the ADUGE and ADRI, co-chairs of the education and research breakouts, respectively, for comment after which SAD staff customized the templates for those two groups.

21 Enabling Action - Education Goal 5 Work and Life Climate Original Climate survey Edited Review past studies that identify recommendations that can be implemented immediately Engage consultant to conduct survey and identify needed actions Survey should cover students, faculty, staff college wide to assess the state of the culture

22 Implementation - Education Summary of Major Decisions Goal Enhance UG Major Modifications College wide course/experiences Cross/Units maj./min. Issue of capped programs, targets MS/MEng PhD None needed Enlarge pool of highly qualified, diverse pool of domestic students. Do not rely on GPA as metric. Climate State of climate needs to be assessed to focus our efforts to improve

23 Implementation Education Metrics Main Challenges Developing realistic, meaningful metrics with given resources Sustainable processes for tracking/reviewing Solutions Look for best practices elsewhere

24 Implementation Education Timeline Main Challenges Difficult to identify timeline without known resources Coordination across departments University constraints and timelines may not align with ours. Solutions Revisit timeline when resources are known

25 Implementation Education Resources Main Challenges Funding Faculty/staff time Solutions Continued marketing to donors, university, etc. Continue working with university on financial model

26 Implementation Education Milestones Main Challenges Adjusting targets and metrics as implementation goes forward. Tracking of targets, timelines Data support Solutions Maintain link with university systems to provide data as needed

27 Additional Issues and Advice To Other Groups Climate survey results and implementation should include faculty and staff, which may overlap with governance MS/PhD education enabling actions may overlap with research, particularly PhD development To College Leadership Engage college faculty and staff in the implementation plan so that there is ownership of the strategic plan collegewide.
