Strategic Plan Update

DePauw University’s Bold & Gold 2027 strategic plan reflects an ambitious, integrated response to the challenges and opportunities facing higher education today. Rooted in a historic commitment to the liberal arts and guided by the university’s mission, vision and values, DePauw has advanced its institutional priorities across four central goals:

• Academic Renewal.
• Exemplary Student Experience.
• Institutional Equity.
• DePauw as a Flourishing University.

As work continues through 2027, DePauw is making progress and investments in innovation. Initial results from the first 2 1/2 years of the plan demonstrate meaningful momentum, disciplined stewardship and enduring alignment with our mission, vision and values.
