Community. Discovery. Impact at Scale.
Inspired by our community, by a spirit of discovery and by a determination to have impact at scale, we are committing in our strategic plan to becoming the highest-impact college of science at a public research university. To do this, we must advance people, place and pursuits — through experiences, education and research — here in Texas Science.
Mission & Values
Our college mission is to provide an excellent, research-oriented education in science, mathematics and computing that fosters the success of students, to discover important new knowledge through research and to create an intellectually and scientifically enriched environment that advances a vibrant Texas, nation and planet.
Community, discovery and impact at scale are the foundation for our accomplishments today and serve as points of focus for our work moving forward.
Our Plan at a Glance
The College of Natural Sciences is primed to continue and grow in its role as a transformative leader on campus, nationally and in the world. To guide the development of the college strategic plan and aspirations to carry us through the next five years, we conducted listening sessions, forums, conversations and open surveys with hundreds of Natural Sciences students, faculty, staff and stakeholders. We are focusing now on how we will change the world.
