The last Faculty of Agricultural, Life & Environmental Sciences strategic plan, titled Solving Global Problems Together, spanned 2017-2021. 

The faculty will engage in consultation winter through the summer of 2025 to draft a new consultation plan available in the fall. Students, alumni, faculty and community and industry partners will all be called upon to have a say on that next big picture. Watch for more information and invitations to participate in a way that’s relevant to you.
