Process and progress
This plan was developed in 2022 and 2023 by School leadership under the direction of Dean Kathy Giacomini, PhD, BSPharm. Feedback was gathered from faculty, staff, and external stakeholders through workgroups, meetings, a faculty retreat, and a town hall. Each theme lists leadership contacts charged with monitoring progress and gathering feedback. A retreat was held on Sep. 16, 2024 to discuss progress updates and next steps, and each theme and goal page above has been updated.
Why plan?
Strategic planning guides our momentum and decision-making while leaving room for us to seize new opportunities and pursue big, innovative ideas.
We develop a faculty-driven plan every five years. Each plan encompasses the detailed goals of the School’s three departments, organized research unit, and Dean’s Office. School plans support the priorities of the UCSF chancellor and the continued success of the 10-campus University of California system.
