This Statement of Work details Huron's engagement to develop a 5-year Strategic Enrollment Plan for Purdue University Fort Wayne. The engagement includes a data-informed assessment of current enrollment and retention, identifying growth opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students (including international), and establishing an infrastructure to support long-term enrollment success and student retention. The process involves three phases: project initiation, current state diagnostic, and strategic enrollment plan development, aiming to define institutional priorities, formalize enrollment goals, and draft actionable initiatives.
