About
The Public Health Major Strategic Plan mind map template helps academic leaders and program coordinators structure a comprehensive strategic plan for a public health undergraduate major. With 77 nodes across four main branches—Projects, Peer Institutions, Student Outreach, and Goals—this template covers current and proposed initiatives, competitive benchmarking, and outreach strategies. Key nodes include 'Fellowship Programs' with 'Fung Fellowship', 'Program Capacity Assessment' with 'Creating Math Model', and 'Short Term 1-3 years' with 'Perform a SWOT Analysis'. It also defines essential terms like 'Mission', 'Objectives', 'Goals', and 'Values' in a glossary. This template serves as a practical cheat sheet for aligning program improvements with institutional priorities.
