2009 Scorecard

The University of Ottawa scorecard measures the impact of the initiatives implemented as a part of Vision 2010 and highlights our progress. The 2009 edition is now ready. With one year left in our five-year strategic plan, Iam confident we will achieve the majority of the targets we set for ourselves. We have made significant progress on all indicators, except one.

One of our most impressive accomplishments over the course of the past year is the increase in the percentage of Francophones at the University for the first time in a long time. It is only a small increase but one that Ihope marks the reversal of a long-standing trend, in consideration of our commitment to Francophone communities — an integral part of our mission. The improvement in the bilingualism of our staff and faculty is also commendable. Other indicators on which we have made a significant progress in the last year include our regional reputational index, the student–professor ratio, and financial aid, which increased by almost $300 per student. Learning space represents our greatest challenge; however, our Five-Year Facilities Renewal and Expansion Plan, which includes the construction of a new building and the revamping of others, should help alleviate the problem.

The 2009 scorecard will be an invaluable tool as we establish priorities and objectives for our next strategic plan, in consultation with our community and by building consensus. At the end of this process, a new scorecard will be produced outlining our institutional priorities.

The University of Ottawa has never been stronger or more vibrant. Our unique qualities and enormous promise will make for an exciting future of continued achievement in both teaching and research. We should be proud of how far we have come, but it is essential that we continue to work together to shape an inspiring and challenging vision for our collective future.
