Strategic Plan

To be a premier source of future business leaders and ideas that will positively transform industry and society. Our research and discoveries will help leaders prepare for the opportunities of tomorrow, and the world-class, inclusive education we provide will produce entrepreneurial, innovative, analytical, and ethical thinkers to solve the challenges of today and prepare for the challenges of tomorrow.

We are Human-Centered.

Putting People at the Heart of What We Do

In a place like Texas, where the state motto is literally "friendship," we understand how important it is to place people at the center of all we do. It's with this in mind that we focus not only on those who make business run, but also those whom business serves. At Texas McCombs, we don't just teach accounting, finance, or marketing; we cultivate within our students, faculty, and staff the spirit and tenacity to make significant contributions to humanity and the world, no matter their final career destination.

Fostering a Collaboratively Competitive Spirit

At Texas McCombs, we view business as a team sport that needs a diversified set of skills to form a championship lineup. Each of us brings our own strengths and views to the table, which fortifies our bonds and makes the whole greater than the sum of its parts. Our relationships are among the most valuable ingredients in our collective energy. It is within this context that we find ourselves able to compete and collaborate, and ultimately, become bigger than ourselves.

We are Future-Focused.

Innovating for Impact

UT Austin's legacy of launching new ideas is rooted in the hard work, determination, and creativity required to see those ideas to fruition. At Texas McCombs, we're part of a built-in community of innovators, both curious about and excited by the challenge of bringing new theories to life - and ensuring those ideas make a significant impact. By leveraging the university's resources, as well as the entrepreneurial ecosystem and nationwide cachet of Austin, we thrive on supporting our students, faculty, and staff in creating knowledge and realizing their visions.

Preparing Students to Lead Through Disruption

We empower our students to stretch beyond the world as it stands today, to feel comfortable in complexity and uncertainty, and to make a positive impact wherever their journeys lead. With our exceptional faculty, groundbreaking research, future-forward curriculum, and top-ranked programs, we anticipate changing market needs and prepare our students to be agile leaders in a world we can’t yet imagine. Texas McCombs is a shining example of UT Austin’s promise that “What starts here changes the world."

Texas McCombs is primed to continue in its role as a transformative leader on campus, across the nation, and in the world. Our impact derives from a powerful combination of excellence and scale. We serve more than 6,000 students each year — plus another 6,000 who receive one of our business minors — and our community of faculty, students, staff, and alumni cares passionately about knowledge creation, education, and cutting-edge business practices. 

To develop the college’s strategic plan and aspirations, we held multiple forums across our school with faculty, staff, students, and alumni. The information we gathered formed this plan and will help us realize the university's broader strategy goals. During the months ahead, we will continue to evolve the initiatives described here, and we commit to developing and publishing metrics to judge our success. Throughout this process, we will rely on our mission and our goal: to support a new generation of leaders who will change the world because they, themselves, have been transformed by the education, research, and experiences at Texas McCombs.

Become the highest-impact public research business school by amplifying our vast expertise, our unmatched experience, and our uniquely innovative ideas from the heart of Texas to the world.

We aspire to build an exceptional community of learners and scholars, leaders and innovators.

Texas McCombs aims to attract and retain outstanding faculty and staff members, cultivate excellence and ambition among our students, and engage our inspiring alumni. We'll do this with initiatives that:

1.1 Foster a supportive culture that inspires all of our talented people to bring their varied and dynamic perspectives to the table

Completed Initiatives

Built a Wellness Center to spark critical conversations about well-being and mental health, and to increase access to existing campus services.

• In Fall 2022, McCombs opened our Wellness Center, the first of its kind on campus, which delivers services to students closer to where they study and learn. Over 800 sessions have been provided to 180+ students since its opening. Through bridge financing, generously provided by Bryan Stolle, McCombs was able to add a second wellness counselor, which allows the Wellness Center to have an additional wellness intern. While the initiative to launch the Wellness Center was completed this year, future operations will expand beyond the initial launch. We are currently piloting a Mind Body Lab and yoga space.

Developed and deployed faculty and staff experience surveys, with a 70% response rate. We want to continuously strengthen a sense of belonging at McCombs by seeking honest feedback and responding with appropriate resource commitments and activities.

• The experience pulse surveys will be deployed periodically to understand the sentiment of our community and to identify areas where we can continue to grow and evolve. We recognize that this is an on-going effort and are excited about the creation of this continuous feedback mechanism.

Work Underway

Fundraising for the McCombs Success Scholars Initiative, to attract and support lower income and first-generation college students with the programming, resources, and opportunities needed to excel within McCombs and beyond. As of November 2023, MSS has received $228k in current use funds and $1.4M in endowment donations.

Create mentoring programs for underserved students that guide them along the path to a Ph.D. We see an opportunity to get more varied voices, ideas and thinking into academia, by creating pathways for first-generation and underserved student communities to pursue Ph.D. programs. Achieving these pathways aligns us with today's business culture and builds on the fact that unique experiences/perspectives, across multiple backgrounds, is the engine behind high-impact idea generation in business and beyond.

1.2 Create an engaged McCombs community for life

We aim to reinvigorate the pride that faculty, staff, students, and alumni feel for McCombs, a pride that has been at the core of our vision for the past century. We are bonded in our mission to transform business, education, and the lives of all who encounter McCombs' many trailblazers.

Completed Initiatives

Amplified the McCombs story throughout 2022 to ensure that our centennial celebrates prior successes and inspires future change-makers. A major accomplishment was the Voices of McCombs, a partnership with NPR’s StoryCorps to create 19 paired conversations between faculty, alumni, students, staff and friends.

Used the McCombs Connect community platform to enhance alumni networking and outreach. This enabled automated, nimble connections for mentorship, alumni, career engagements and resources - and rich internal and external affinity networks for alumni, students, faculty, and staff.

• McCombs Connect was created to provide a virtual community with ease of connections between alumni, students, faculty and staff for mentorship, alumni career engagements and resources. We set a goal to secure 5k users within the first 5 years. In the first year, we secured 3.8k+ users and are on track to exceed our initial goal and stretch toward 10k users in 5 years.
• We drove this engagement with the following: BBA and MBA Mentoring Programs with over 200 participants in each program and more than 20 community groups. Four of these community groups have more than 100 students involved with specialized focus on industries, locations, and affinity.

These workshops are positioned to inform thinking about helping students learn to use AI as a professional in their field, and to aid faculty in AI applications for teaching assistance. AI-specific resources have been created and are available to faculty on our MOII resources site.

Strengthen staff credentials, skills, and learning agility by offering more opportunities for professional development and crafting clearer pathways for promotion.

• This year, we launched our ‘Rising Leaders’ program for Assistant Director and select Directors. The program focuses on leadership development, people management and strategic planning. Our inaugural class of 30 began the program in August 2023, with a new cohort planned for the 2024 – 25 Academic Year. We are continuing to identify new learning & development opportunities to prepare staff for career growth at McCombs and across the University.

We aspire to help realize the unmatched potential of Austin, Texas, and become a global center for business innovation.

We seek to become a hub where students, top scholars, alumni, and business leaders connect to shape the future of business. We’ll do this with initiatives that:

2.1 Establish McCombs as the convening place for learners and future leaders

Reinvigorate our process to manage our portfolio of minors, majors, and degree programs that best equip students for the future of work. Develop metrics to retain, discontinue, or launch programs.

• In 2023, our Accounting, IROM, Management, and Marketing department chairs reviewed and refreshed aspects of their curriculum. The Accounting department refreshed their curriculum to broaden the appeal beyond the traditional accounting roles of audit and taxation. The IROM department quadrupled enrollment in their new undergraduate Business Analytics major. The Management department prioritized the concentrations in consulting and entrepreneurship and their minor in entrepreneurship for refreshes.
• We initiated the Academic Portfolio review process for centers and programs, including the development of metrics to assess center and program health. Analysis of the process to launch or discontinue programs is ongoing.

Develop refined measures of assessment, rigor, and content excellence in the classroom to inform peer reviews and supplement course instructor surveys.

• McCombs' Office of Instructional Innovation formed a rigor committee, with representation from all McCombs academic departments and three sub-committees focused on culture, faculty, and impact measures. The culture sub-committee is piloting a program designed to help new McCombs acculturate to what it means to teach at McCombs. One of the goals is to have new faculty help students understand the distinction of desirable difficulty versus distress as they are asked to take on challenging learning tasks. The faculty sub-committee has identified four pillars on which to base their work. These are challenging work, mastering complex material, produce credible work, and critical thinking.

We aim to foster excellence in instruction and to meet the growing demand for high-quality degrees and lifelong learning opportunities. We’ll do this with initiatives that:
