Growing Research and Scholarship

Strategic Vision
Pacific 2020 is our strategic plan for excelling in a changing higher-education environment. University of the Pacific’s mission continues to remain as relevant and important; and as we achieve the mission we continue to value Intellectual Curiosity. We believe that intellectual inquisitiveness is the basis for innovation, creativity and superior learning, teaching and scholarship.
