The University of Minnesota Duluth (UMD) created a strategic pathway that aligns with UMD’s mission, vision, and values and the five imperatives of the University of Minnesota strategic roadmap, Elevate Extraordinary 2030.
The strategic pathway commitments will bring this plan to life, and building out work groups with measurable actions to support the commitments will be the focus of the 2026-2027 academic year.
Throughout the 2025-2026 academic year, campus community members and key external stakeholders provided critical input to help inform and shape the plan. Learn more about the planning process.
