THROUGHOUT the College

of Pharmacy’s 102-year history,

innovative thinkers and action oriented leaders have championed bold visions into lasting policy.

They have empowered students to become not just pharmacists, scientists, researchers and clinicians but to become GAME CHANGERS,

LIFE SAVERS, INVENTORS, DREAMERS and DOERS.

May we honor their legacy as we commit to a new era of critical thinking, action planning, and strategic forward momentum, now, and into the future.

“There is a TIDE in the affairs of men. Which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune;

Omitted, all the voyage of their life is bound in shallows and in miseries.

On such a full SEA are we now AFLOAT…”

—Shakespeare’s “Julius Caesar”

The ISU College of Pharmacy is a place where the “ TIDE IS IN.” Through the convergence of progressive healthcare policies, innovations in training, and resources for scientific research, we have an unprecedented opportunity to revolutionize the science and practice of pharmacy.

Now is the time to put out our boats and venture… while the tide is in our favor.

The progress this plan sets out is ambitious, dovetails with the ISU Strategic Plan, and builds on our historic commitment to engage students, transform healthcare, and improve our communities. We hope you will come to know this plan and take an active role in its implementation.

The strategic priorities spelled out in this plan should inform your activities and become the yardstick by which all our efforts are measured.

WHY STUDENT RECRUITMENT?

GOAL: Meet target enrollment with quality applicants for all programs

OBJECTIVE: By the end of AY2025 the COP will create and implement a comprehensive recruitment plan that attracts high quality, diverse applicants and achieves strategic target enrollments.

INDICATORS 1. Target seats filled 2. Quality of applicants (Admission Score) 3. College of Pharmacy online engagement 4. Number of pre-pharmacy students from ISU and other feeder schools 5. Job placement (e.g., residency, type of jobs, etc…) 6. Student attrition

Additional internal and external teaching, reduced faculty numbers, diminishing or static budgets, increased competition for funding, and workload definition inconsistency with the university have all contributed to workload demand.

GOAL: Improve staff and faculty job satisfaction by addressing workload issues, fostering teamwork, and valuing the contributions of all.

OBJECTIVE: By the end of AY2025, the COP will optimize staff and faculty workloads by identifying operational/programmatic challenges, critical gaps in resources and personnel, and implementing mitigation and improvement strategies.
