SACSCOC Reaffirmation
Strategic Plan
The UK Board of Trustees approved in October 2021 a new Strategic Plan, UK-PURPOSE, that will serve as a roadmap for our progress together.
It clearly articulates for our campus — and all those who invest in and care about this special place — how we are working to advance the Commonwealth. These principles will serve as the foundation of how UK will operationalize honoring its mission as a land-grant institution in the 21st century:
- Putting students first
- Taking care of our people
- Inspiring ingenuity
- Ensuring greater trust, transparency and accountability
- Bringing together many people; one community
Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC)
SACSCOC requires the University of Kentucky to participate in a reaffirmation process. It is one of the highest, if not the highest, priorities for the university.
Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP)
The QEP is a component of our reaffirmation of accreditation with the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges. It reflects and affirms that learning is at the core of our mission.
Office of Strategic Planning and Institutional Effectiveness (OSPIE)
OSPIE oversees and monitors the implementation, evaluation, and management of institutional effectiveness activities, institutional accreditation requirements, and state and federal initiatives.
