Abstract

National and global trends in higher education have demonstrated that academic programs and institutions such as UNM must be transformed to serve the changing educational needs of a knowledge economy. We must embrace new models of learning, including digital and online delivery tools, to make educational content available to degree-seeking students wherever they are, whenever they need it. In addition to providing the traditional bricks-and-mortar university experience, UNM can and must respond to the forces of disruptive innovation. Our strategic efforts through UNM2020 and the examination of new ways to construct the University budget have provided optimistic analyses of where our university and its traditions have come from and how we need to change for the future to sustain long-term institutional success.
