Potential QEP Themes for WKU
The following QEP themes were proposed by the SACS
Leadership Team and have been submitted to the campus community
for discussion. To see the full QEP Theme Selection Process and
Timeline, click here, and to view
the Powerpoint presentation, “WKU Quality Enhancement Plan
Theme Selection,” click
here.
Each potential theme is deliberately broad so that a variety of
initiatives could be developed within the theme. Moreover, each
theme is drawn from the current strategic plan, “Challenging
the Spirit,” and relates to numerous performance indicators
within that plan.
Listed under each potential theme are examples of initiatives
that might be consistent with that theme. It should be noted that
these are examples only; many other initiatives are possible.
- Increasing Student Engagement
- Increase student interactions with faculty members (e.g.,
involvement with faculty in discussions and activities and
on projects not specifically-tied to course work)
- Leadership (develop/enhance leadership skills)
- Provide supportive campus environment
- Increase active and collaborative learning (e.g., community-based
projects, class projects)
- Provide enriching educational experiences (e.g., internships
or field experiences, study abroad)
- Promoting Student Success
- Adapt academic advising system to better meet mission/strategic
goals
- Expand Placement for Success program
- Improve retention/graduation rates

school advising)
- Preparing Students to be Productive Citizens in a Global Society
- Develop knowledge and skills to be competitive
