Example Strategic Initiatives:
- Engage in, and expand support for, pedagogical and curriculum redesign
- Expand support for graduate students, including those who are first generation and historically underrepresented
- Develop an asset-based student success plan, that engages all administrative units, and identifies culturally responsive ways to assess student success
- Assess existing student support activities, eliminate redundancies, and invest in and scale practices that have measurable impact
- Expand and automate capacity to identify and analyze underlying systemic influences on undergraduate retention and timely completion that are specific to the UC Merced campus, communicate findings to faculty, staff, and administrators, prepare advisors to use and response to data analytics, and develop and prioritize strategies to address these causes
- Further develop an early alert system to enable timely interventions that connect students with the resources they require to support academic and personal success
- Build out ‘recovery pathways’ for students who veer off track
