Strategic Plan
UMMC 2030 Strategic Plan
As Mississippi's sole academic medical center, the University of Mississippi Medical Center carries a profound responsibility. We are entrusted with educating and training the state's future health professionals, advancing medical research and innovation and delivering comprehensive, high-quality care to all Mississippians.
To fulfill this mission and address the evolving health needs of our state, UMMC has developed a comprehensive institutional strategic plan. This plan outlines five enduring strategic priorities that will guide our efforts from fiscal year 2026 to 2030:
- Maximize value in quality of care
- Promote clinical access, efficiency and growth
- Cultivate a vibrant academic community
- Foster excellence in research
- Optimize institutional service areas
These strategic priorities will remain constant throughout the five-year period. Each fiscal year, we will establish specific, measurable goals aligned with each priority. These annual goals serve as foundational steps toward long-term progress and are evaluated and refined annually to ensure continued advancement.
The UMMC 2030 strategic plan officially launched on July 1, 2025. A detailed overview booklet outlining the five strategic priorities and their corresponding goals for the first year is available below. Updated overview booklets will be published annually to reflect ongoing progress and future objectives.
