6 Interim Dean - Objective Create conditions to attract discipline specific leadership My View On Arrival The Challenge(s) The Process to: create the conditions to attract discipline specific leadership

7 My View on Arrival: Strategic Plan Vision The Faculty of Architecture aspires to offer widely recognised and highly valued design and planning undergraduate and graduate programs that promote a respectful, collegial, interdisciplinary culture of teaching, scholarship and service within the University and beyond. Mission We aim to provide exceptional teaching, scholarship and community service in architecture, city planning, environmental design, interior design, landscape architecture, and emerging areas of design education and practice.

8 My View on Arrival: Strategic Plan Guiding principles 1. The University of Manitoba's Faculty of Architecture is committed to creating an environment that delivers an exceptional experience in teaching, scholarship, and community service. 2. We will achieve this by strengthening support, growth and advocacy for faculty and students through the delivery of programs. The Faculty encourages renewal and/or growth of professional programs to sizes that ensure their vitality and relevance, and supports them in maintaining accreditation from their professions' accrediting bodies. 3. We will foster a culture that encourages innovation, creativity and leadership. The Faculty encourages diverse and experimental approaches to pedagogy and scholarship, as well as engagement in public discourse, debate and advocacy about current and emerging issues related to the design and inhabitation of environments. 4. Faculty programs are academically accountable to the University of Manitoba. 5. Faculty graduate programs are professionally accountable to their relevant accrediting bodies.

13 Challenge: Accreditation/Review Positives Guiding Principle: maintaining accreditation The program is attracting intelligent and committed students quality of the student body brings tremendous vitality Students feel encouraged to expand their education outside of the school through events such as design competitions and community involvement Faculty members share an enthusiasm for teaching highly qualified, accomplished and dedicated faculty members individuals deeply dedicated and passionately committed to the success of the Program The internship program provides practical field experience. High quality and quantity of space and resources, e.g. studios, library

14 Challenge: Accreditation/Review Negative Guiding Principle: maintaining accreditation Resources: The number of regular faculty is not sufficient to mount the professional program Financial resources adequate provided that baseline funding is available to bring the academic component up to an acceptable level Deep concern about the apparent erosion of the human resource base in the Faculty Governance & Program Structure: Governance had been a central concern things seem to have deteriorated Poorly defined governance structure fosters confusion and ill will curricular and governance models must be reformed lack of clarity in governance model has been a major source of stress and conflict Lack of clarity in the relationship between the professional programs and the interdisciplinary program, between the graduate and undergraduate levels in the Faculty of Architecture Students: student intake has declined trends must be reversed Concern that undergraduate and graduate students can be taking the exact same courses for differing granting degree students are experiencing damaging and debilitating levels of stress Time to completion is an issue Expectations regarding the duration of the program are a surprise to students Faculty: Clearly been a breakdown in morale, sense of trust, respect and collegiality Many professors feel that there is very little time left for research and that research and publishing is not particularly fostered

15 My View on Arrival: Operating Budget 4 % Budget Reduction - Reallocation Faculty of Architecture All Faculties Average 2011/ / / / / /17 12% reduction Mission: architecture, city planning, environmental design, interior design, landscape architecture

20 Arising Questions? 1. Is current program structure sustainable? continue all Professional programs? strengthen / re-align undergraduate program? 2. Is current academic structure still serving us well? programs Departments? Schools versus Departments? opportunities to link with other Faculties Environment, Earth & Resources Engineering School of Art 3. Is Faculty of Architecture still the right name? If not, what is? 4. BID professional accredited program & MID post-professional research degree? 5. PhD Design & Planning? 6.?????????????

21 Looking Ahead 1. Imperative to determine future academic & program structure more impending budget reductions enrolment trends external accreditation 2. Your input is critical.
