Trends for higher education

Understanding trends helps us shape a strong future for WSU.

Understanding trends empowers us to make strategic decisions.

Understanding and addressing environmental trends is crucial for strategic planning and informed decision-making at Washington State University (WSU). By closely monitoring these trends, WSU aims to optimize its operations, allocate resources effectively, and adapt to both internal and external changes.
