Timeline
Work on our new University Strategy formally kicked off in early 2019
This is an important piece of work which will set the University’s direction and approach for the next 15 years. We are keen that our students, staff and the wider Oxford Brookes community have an opportunity to feed into the developing strategy.
Engagement sessions
University Strategy Group held a number of engagement sessions to reach out to students, staff and the local community in order for these groups to contribute their views and help to shape the new university strategy. These events took place from November 2019 until March 2020.
Staff
Staff strategy engagement sessions began in November 2019 and were held at all university sites. Staff can access lecture capture and documents relating to these events from this
Google site.
Students
We then held Student Strategy engagement sessions in February 2020. Engagement sessions were facilitated by Professor Anne-Marie Kilday, Pro-Vice Chancellor of Student and Staff Experience and Kaylee Trafford, Assistant Registrar at all university sites. Students were invited to discuss the new strategy content to date, feed in their comments and share their ideas.
Community
A Strategy Community Supper was held in March 2020. We looked to our nearest neighbours, our critical friends, and our committed partners to help us be ambitious, creative, cooperative, and conscientious - to help us develop a vision for Oxford Brookes in the future. Guests were invited to comment on and discuss a series of specific questions on how the University could continue to work closely with local partners and the community and what the priorities should be within a new strategy.
Feedback from staff, students and community members were collated and brought back to University Strategy Group so that the identified priorities and themes could be built into the emerging strategy.
