Strategic Planning

Beginning in the spring of 2025, Yale School of Medicine (YSM) embarked on refreshing our strategic plan and the resulting plan is grounded in our mission statement. Read the full description of the process for the 2026 strategic plan refresh.

Strategic plans require prioritization. The priorities outlined here are not exclusive, and we will continue to execute our daily work and initiatives we have already begun. The intent of this strategic plan is to develop compelling vision for our future.

Prior educational, clinical, and university-wide science strategic planning includes student engagement in attaining competency; faculty participation in the educational mission; creating a more inclusive and enriched learning community; and for clinical strategic planning, YM and YNHHS share an aspiration to achieve extraordinary gains in individual, community, and global health as one of the nation's premier academic health systems.
