During 2020-21 SUNY Brockport will undertake an Academic Master Planning process. This will include the work of two interrelated committees; the Program Review Task Force and the Academic Innovation Task Force. The work of the two task force groups will be directed by co-chairs who will also serve on AMP Guiding Committee. The AMP Guiding Committee will consist of the four task force co-chairs, associate deans of each school, the Director of the Center for Graduate Studies, Vice Provost, and the Director of Institutional Effectiveness (or designee) and the Director of Assessment. The AMP Guiding Committee will be chaired by the Provost.
Each task force will consist of 6-8 faculty or staff chosen through an open call, at least one graduate student and one undergraduate student. Members will be chosen to ensure balance, diversity and shared governance representation.

The task force will then review responses and using a scoring rubric, provide weighted feedback and information on each area. These data will then be shared with the AMP Guiding Committee.
