Osceola/Lake Nona/Poinciana Campuses 2016-2020
The Osceola, Lake Nona, and Poinciana Campuses are vibrant communities of learning characterized by a welcoming culture that embraces the diversity of all students, faculty, and staff. We strive to make all students, faculty, staff, and community members feel at home on campus, regardless of ethnicity, sexual orientation, religious affiliation, native language, or immigration status, and we intend to create a culture such that our campuses feel like community campuses rather than commuter campuses.
Developed during the 2015-16 academic year with input from more than 300 faculty, staff, and students, our 2016-2020 Campus Plan does not attempt to describe all of our important day-to-day operational efforts over the next three to five years; rather, it identifies areas of strategic focus for the Osceola, Lake Nona, and Poinciana Campuses based on our students and communities unique needs at this point in time. A multidisciplinary work team that will define a working theory and develop a work plan to lead us to successful achievement of the objective will be established for each of the objectives identified in our Campus Plan. The Lake Nona and Poinciana Campuses, as well as each of the divisions at the Osceola Campus, will create area campus and division goals that support the objectives of our Campus Plan.
