Annual Report
2015-16
"Growing Community Partnerships"
This year has been pivotal in moving along the new Outreach & Engagement Strategic Plan that was launched in July 2015. It was a year of establishing community partnerships and connections to North Carolinians. 2015-2016 was a year of major events including growing the Ultimate Community Partnerships (UCP), packCONNECT and the University Engagement Advisory Board (UEAB). These, and other programs, focus on collaboration among faculty, staff and diverse external groups in mutually beneficial partnerships that are consistent with NC State’s role and mission.
We hope the stories provided here offer a snapshot of NC State faculty, staff and students who are working with other institutions and organizations to share knowledge and expertise, and enhance the quality of life for residents of North Carolina.
The year ended with us looking back on what we’ve accomplished and also looking forward to new opportunities as we experience transition in the Office of Outreach & Engagement. Dr. Terri Helmlinger Ratcliff, Vice Provost for Outreach & Engagement, has announced her retirement and will be stepping down at the end of September, 2016.
