RESEARCH GOAL: TOP 5 BY 2016
The University of Calgary will be a global intellectual hub
located in Canada’s most enterprising city. In this spirited,
high quality environment, students will thrive in programs
made rich by research and hands-on experiences. By our
fiftieth anniversary, we will be one of Canada’s top five
research universities, fully engaging the communities we
both serve and lead.
The University of Calgary’s 2012 Strategic Research Plan
provides the roadmap for achieving the university’s Eyes
High goal to become one of Canada’s top five research
intensive universities by our 50th anniversary in 2016.
Vision of the Haskayne School of Business
We will be an internationally recognized center of
excellence for graduate and undergraduate business
education, research, and community engagement. We will
emphasize those distinct elements that define Calgary and
Alberta: ethical leadership, entrepreneurship, and energy.
As researchers, our mission is “to create knowledge
through basic and applied research in business disciplines
and related fields, when possible capitalizing on the
natural advantages of our location” in Calgary, Alberta,
Canada. Furthermore, this knowledge will transfer to our
students and we will “provide innovative programs and
rich experiential, research-based learning opportunities,
so that our students learn teamwork, problem-solving,
critical thinking, effective communication, and a spirit of
community service. In this way we all contribute value to
our organizations and society at large.”
