Strategic Plan

UCalgary Law 2010 - 2015

Energy. Skill. Excellence.

On May 4, 2010, the Faculty of Law Council approved a new strategic plan for the Faculty.  Our new Strategic Plan confirms and elaborates upon the goals that were the core of our 2004-2009 Plan:

1. To establish the Faculty's JD program as the premier program in Western Canada;
2. To confirm an international reputation for excellence in the Faculty's specialization: resources, energy and environmental law.

The 2010-2015 plan adds a third goal:

3. To achieve national recognition for our "Excellence in Lawyering" legal skills program.

The Law School is grateful to all those who supported our last Strategic Plan, which saw major renovations to Murray Fraser Hall to accommodate an increase in our programs and student numbers. See our Donor Impact Report, Fostering Excellence: Seizing the Initiative, which describes in detail the progress made on the goals set out in our 2004-2009 plan.  Please see also our Donor Honour Roll and the list of members of the Dean's Community Council for the names of those who helped us achieve the goals of our 2004-2009 Strategic Plan.
