Strategic Initiative V

Expanding Resources and Infrastructure

To become a premier public research university, UTSA must expand and align its resources with its mission and vision. To meet this challenge, UTSA must pursue innovative resource utilization and development strategies consonant with best practices of premier research institutions nationwide. This will foster an environment that provides adequate resources to nurture learning through research and scholarship. Evolution toward our future profile of people, culture and processes, infrastructure, revenue mix, and global capabilities will be addressed through the following five goals.

Goal 1: Retain and recruit faculty and staff who are committed to our vision, mission, and values, and who diligently contribute to excellence.

Goal 2: Create an organizational culture, administrative processes, and structure that value and promote productivity, while optimizing both the utilization of existing resources and the generation of new resources.

Goal 3: Provide the physical infrastructure—buildings, classrooms, laboratories, studios, and libraries—that will allow us to support the work of our faculty and staff, and to serve our students in alignment with the University’s Master Plan.

Goal 4: Increase and optimize the revenue mix beyond the traditional sources of tuition and fees and state support through expansion of resources such as sponsored projects and research, gifts and endowments, scholarships, auxiliary services, partnerships, and entrepreneurship opportunities.

Goal 5: Ensure that administrative processes and technology are aligned to efficiently enable faculty, staff, and students to act globally and access international resources appropriate to their discipline.
