2026-2028 Anchor of the North Strategic Plan

The Anchor of the North Strategic Plan provides a focused roadmap to strengthen the University of Wisconsin-Superior’s impact, elevate student success and advance our role as a trusted regional partner. Grounded in our mission and informed by the evolving landscape of higher education, the plan is centered on three strategic pillars: Foster Regional Vitality, Strengthen Enrollment and Enhance Our Distinctiveness. Together, these priorities will guide decision-making, investment and action across the university over the next two years.

The plan was developed through a highly collaborative process led by a 17-member Strategic Planning Core Team representing faculty, staff, leadership and shared governance groups. Input from students, employees, alumni and community partners was gathered through surveys, forums, department meetings, stakeholder sessions and other engagement opportunities throughout the 2025-26 academic year. The result is a strategic plan shaped by the UW-Superior community and designed to address both current opportunities and emerging challenges.

As a two-year plan, Anchor of the North allows UW-Superior to remain agile while maintaining a clear sense of purpose. It serves as a living framework that will guide our work, strengthen accountability and help ensure the university continues to create opportunity and value for learners, communities and the region we serve.
