New DRAFT Mission, Vision & Value Statements
Below is the latest draft of the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering’s proposed Mission, Vision & Value Statements, as of 2/17/23. We still need your thoughts and opinions, please email us and let us know what you think:
Vision
The FAMU-FSU College of Engineering will be the academic leader in engineering studies through focusing on inclusive excellence in research, education, and service.
Mission
As the only joint college of engineering in the nation that sits at the nexus of two exceptional public universities, the mission of the Florida A&M University-Florida State University College of Engineering is to define a new standard of excellence that is built on a solid foundation of diversity and inclusiveness. The FAMU-FSU College of Engineering will: (1) provide innovative undergraduate and graduate academic programs of the highest caliber; (2) graduate more minority and women engineers than the national average; and (3) attain national and international recognition through ground-breaking research achievements and the service of its faculty and students.
Values
Innovation, Collaboration, Excellence, Creative, Inclusive
