Ferris State University's Strategic Plan
Since its founding in 1984, Ferris State University has successfully prepared students for careers and professions in a changing world. We continue to meet the challenges of the future and have established our strategic plan to guide the University in meeting the changing needs of Ferris students, Ferris employees, employers, the State of Michigan, and the Midwest region.
Based on the suggestions and comments of faculty, students, staff, administrators, alumni, and others, Ferris State University has forged a mission statement that reaffirms its commitment to the success of its students, a statement of core values that guides our institutional life, and a vision statement to which we aspire. We are putting specific goals and initiatives into practice to enhance our students' educational experience, insure a welcoming community, sustain the financial position of the institution, provide quality learning and living facilities, enrich collaboration, and foster innovation.
