UC San Diego’s Strategic Plan for Inclusive Excellence
Developed in 2017, through extensive campus community input, the Strategic Plan for Inclusive Excellence is a framework that promotes, values, and welcomes the collaborative input, mutual respect, and recognition needed to create an environment that encourages the full participation of all campus members, which in turn leads to excellence in teaching, research, learning, and patient care.
The Strategic Plan for Inclusive Excellence identifies core tenets central to achieving our vision and mission. These core tenets are: Access and Success, Climate, and Accountability.
Access and Success: Attract, retain, and support a diverse faculty, staff, and student body with the goal of achieving institutional excellence at UC San Diego.
Climate: Create and foster a positive and welcoming climate where we value, include, and support all at UC San Diego.
Accountability: Ensure institutional accountability through processes and structures that strengthen UC San Diego's clear and continuous commitment to institutional effectiveness as described in the campus’ Strategic Plan goals.
