Our five-year strategic plan
This Strategic Plan for 2025–2030 guides our activity and annual priorities in key areas of focus, while keeping our efforts directed toward continuous goals.
The Kansas Biological Survey & Center for Ecological Research is a designated research center at the University of Kansas wherein researchers of all levels and research support staff contribute to excellence in scholarship and service at the university, across Kansas, and beyond.
Strategic planning was initiated to prioritize and guide the research center’s activities that aim to:
- grow research
- develop priority hiring areas
- formulate fundraising initiatives
- prioritize requests
- better serve our learners
- communicate our work more broadly
- increase funding from all sources to support research
- learn about opportunities, and
- create and maintain a welcoming and supportive work environment.
