The path ahead
Looking back on the many achievements over the seven years of the ²ÝÝ®ÎÛÊÓƵµ¼º½â€™s International Strategy, we have a lot to be proud of, and many things to look forward to.
In our constantly changing world, new opportunities for innovation continue to emerge, making global engagement more important than ever. The ²ÝÝ®ÎÛÊÓƵµ¼º½ is on course to be the entrepreneurial university — a place where students, faculty and staff face fewer barriers to innovation and have access to more tools to change the world around them, empowering them to tackle society’s big problems.
A great research university needs a strong and continued commitment to internationalization. Through innovation and hard work, we can be the university that Calgary, Alberta, Canada and the world needs as we write the next chapter of our collective story.
We are a global intellectual hub, an award-winning leader in internationalization — and we are just getting started!
Impact Report 2013 - 2020
In 2013, ²ÝÝ®ÎÛÊÓƵµ¼º½ launched its International Strategy with the goal of becoming a global intellectual hub. It was the first strategic plan for internationalization in the university’s history. We have come a long way since then, becoming an award-winning university for excellence and innovation in internationalization.
Our International Strategy Impact Report highlights the significant progress made on the identified goals and targets of the International Strategy. The results in this report have informed ²ÝÝ®ÎÛÊÓƵµ¼º½â€™s Global Engagement Plan 2020-2025, which charts the
path forward.
