  27. Future • Challenges • Declining State support for higher education? • Decreasing number of high school graduates in Ohio • Quarter-to-semester transition • Mission of a university • Education • Research • Service • Economic impact • Where (what) do we want to be in 10 years?

  28. Opportunities • A vibrant CECS • Highly talented and dedicated faculty and staff ready to make a difference; • Motivated students eager to learn and succeed; • Alumni and friends supporting and contributing; • Region and State need/demand knowledge-based economic growth; • Faculty- and student-initiated start-ups • Technology transfer

  29. Opportunities • Internationally recognized leaders and scholars • Membership, National Academies of Science or Engineering • Editors of reputed journals • Research awards • Nationally ranked programs • Significantly increased research funding level • Semester transition • Forward-looking curricula

  30. Specific Goals • Increase undergraduate and graduate enrollments • Recruit top domestic & international students • Educate students who can compete globally & help US industry stay competitive • Promote interdisciplinary programs and “integrated education & research” activities • Significantly increase funding • Reward world-class scholarship • Enhance prominence & visibility of CECS
