Description

The University has launched its new Strategy with a core purpose to inspire the remarkable and a commitment to excellence in all that we do. Further information can be found at https://www.southampton.ac.uk/about/strategy A core characteristic of our of Strategy is the Triple Helix approach, by strengthening and increasing the links between our activities our Triple Helix approach will achieve greater impact and accelerate new ways to tackle the world's most complex problems. It has been clearly acknowledged that digital development and a new approach to this element of our work will be key enabler of our goals. Our intention is to deliver a step change in digital transformation across the University, enabling our reach and impact to be extended. Our digital infrastructures are a vital component in realising our ambitions. Relatedly, we are in the process of developing an Organisational Excellence Strategic Plan. The work to date on this plan has confirmed the need to enhance our digital infrastructure and deliver services that are digitally leading-edge with a human face. To help us realise the ambition to make a step-change in digital, we wish to develop a Masterplan that will inform priorities for change, the investment we need to make, and guide how we need to change to stay up-to-date and relevant in the future. This Digital Strategic Plan will also significantly contribute to student life at the University as it will act as an enabler for key digital deliverables in the Education, Student Experience, and International strategic plans.
