Time and Change Strategic Plan

What is our aspiration?

Ohio State will enhance our position among the top national and international public universities in research and creative expression, both across the institution and in targeted fields – driving significant advances for critical societal challenges.

Our university’s strength lies in the extraordinary breadth and scale of our research efforts. Ohio State is committed to convening the greatest minds to push the boundaries of fundamental and translational research and solve societal challenges.

Our ambitions are bold because that is the Ohio State way. Our responsibility is great because families in Ohio and beyond require us to be the very best we can be. Our future is bright because we are Buckeyes — and we have 150 years of excellence to help light the way.
