Over the next five years, Howard Payne University will focus effort and resources on Enhancing the Student Experience across locations in Brownwood, New Braunfels and El Paso. This endeavor will maintain and further strengthen HPU’s commitment to students in providing a Christ-centered 学术 community dedicated to excellence by developing and equipping students with the critical thinking skills, 完整性, and service mindset necessary for lives that glorify God.

  • Engaging and enriching interactions
  • Enrollment growth and student support
  • Innovative teaching and learning
  • Transformed spaces
 

These university priorities align with the mission, 核心价值观, and vision of Howard Payne University. Each emphasis will center on the student experience, positioning the University to offer the best for students to succeed both inside and outside of the classroom and in their professional callings.

In discussion of each 优先级,几 strategic goals will be outlined, each with measurable actions. The selected priorities, goals, and actions direct the University on a course to enhance the student experience.
