The university’s vision is to be a leader in identifying and addressing the humanitarian, social and technological challenges of the 21st century.
With this mission and vision as the foundation, the university has developed a set of strategic priorities to guide its work, focusing on:

- Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
- Sustaining, Supporting and Inspiring our Community
- Campus Success, through aligning our university's physical, digital, financial and human resources
These strategic priorities align with the CU System Strategic Plan:.
In the coming months, Chancellor Schwartz will engage with the campus community to evolve and develop these strategic priorities.
