AI innovations, expanded health care access among quarterly strategic plan updates

Dear members of the University of Iowa community,

As we enter the final year of the 2022-2027 Strategic Plan, we remain focused on sustaining the momentum we have built together while beginning to look ahead to the university's next strategic plan. Across campus, our community continues to turn strategic priorities into meaningful progress, including the updated reSPARC Work Group, which will lead implementation of initiatives to generate revenue, improve processes, and use university resources effectively.

This edition of Plan in Progress highlights that momentum-from expanding resources and opportunities around artificial intelligence and access to health care to investing in academic spaces that will support teaching, learning, and discovery for years to come. These efforts reflect both how far we have come and the strong foundation we are building for what's next.

Thank you for your continued commitment to the University of Iowa and for the many ways you help move our university forward.

Kevin C. Kregel
Executive vice president and provost
