The Vision 2030 Plan is a campus-wide priority designed to make us a better comprehensive research university. The plan incorporates input from a broad range of university stakeholders. The resulting plan identifies strategies and metrics to maximize FSU's excellence and communicates a narrative that highlights the distinctive traits that make FSU a strong AAU candidate.

Plan Development
The Vision 2030 Plan is informed by university stakeholder engagement, from FSU Leadership to a broad range of deans, faculty, and staff across FSU's Academic Colleges, Centers, and Institutes. Plan development was initiated in 2023, with the creation of a team that reported initial goals and objectives. The team also identified resources needed to develop the plan and designed a framework for stakeholder involvement. The following operational structure of Executive, Steering, and Operational Committees were involved from 2024-2025 to develop university strategies, tactics, and metrics to achieve the Vision.
