SUNY Brockport Academic Master Planning 2020-21
During 2020-21 SUNY Brockport will undertake an Academic Master Planning process. This will include the work of two interrelated committees; the Program Review Task Force and the Academic Innovation Task Force. The work of the two task force groups will be directed by co-chairs who will also serve on AMP Guiding Committee. The AMP Guiding Committee will consist of the four task force co-chairs, associate deans of each school, the Director of the Center for Graduate Studies, Vice Provost, and the Director of Institutional Effectiveness (or designee) and the Director of Assessment. The AMP Guiding Committee will be chaired by the Provost.
Each task force will consist of 6-8 faculty or staff chosen through an open call, at least one graduate student and one undergraduate student. Members will be chosen to ensure balance, diversity and shared governance representation.
Program Review Task Force
Co-Chairs: Cathy Houston-Wilson and Jeff Lashbrook
6-8 faculty or staff, graduate student, undergraduate student. Members will be chosen to ensure balance, diversity and shared governance representation.
Task Force Charge: Using updated and revised AMP Template review all undergraduate and graduate programs on campus. Using supplied data (from IE, Budget, SUNY and other sources), each department or program coordinator will respond to prompts related to:
- Centrality and Consistency with College Mission and Strategic Plan
- Internal Demand
- External Demand
- Financial Analysis and Instructional Efficiency
- Quality of Inputs
- Productivity and Outcomes
The task force will then review responses and using a scoring rubric, provide weighted feedback and information on each area. These data will then be shared with the AMP Guiding Committee. An interim report on task force progress will be submitted in December with a final report due to the AMP Guiding Committee in May, 2021.
Academic Innovation Task Force
Co-Chairs: Darson Rhodes and Kathy Peterson
6-8 faculty or staff, graduate student, undergraduate student. Members will be chosen to ensure balance, diversity and shared governance representation.
Task Force Charge: Using trend data (local, state and national) identify areas where SUNY Brockport could create new or expand existing programs at both the undergraduate and graduate level with an emphasis on high-impact enrollment and revenue generation. The task force shall also track and report progress on new programs as they are developed, act as a resource to departments on the creation of new programs and work with College Senate and Dr. Eileen Daniel to streamline the proposal submission process.
While the work of this task force will be ongoing and nimble, an interim report on task force progress will be submitted in December with a final report due to the AMP Guiding Committee in May, 2021.
