'New Synergies' is Strategic Plan at Purdue

You can get to New Synergies here. Next, the colleges and schools are beginning their own planning, intended to be aligned and integrated with the overall plan.

Richard Cosier, dean of the Krannert School of Management, said the college and school plans are likely to be quite intensive, involving everything from a review of student support programs to changes in curriculum.

"I really like the student experience focus in the New Synergies plan, and we'll take a careful look to see how we can affect the student experience," Cosier said. "It has the ability to impact people."

Purdue colleges and schools will work on their plans this semester with the goal of putting them in place sometime next year.
