Introduction

The Isabela State University currently stands as the premiere Higher Education Institution in Region 02,
and accordingly, it is indisputably regarded as one of the top State Universities and Colleges (SUCs) in the
country. With its growing prestige, it is now zeroing in on its emerging international presence.

Notwithstanding this competitive stature, we will strive not to allow any room for complacency. Our
dreams to further improve our key result operations and be at all times distinguished for excellence, quality,

and relevance are deep-seated as we endeavor to be at par with the best universities. Thus, empowered to fully
permeate through globalized landscape. These are the reasons why we continue to evolve and reinvent our
short-term plans and to pave our way towards our desires and aspirations.

It is indeed paramount for us to recalibrate our strategic directions. Foremost, we will escalate our

university status, to meet international standards in all our educational pursuits. It therefore incumbent upon us
to inspect and upgrade the quality of our physical structures, equipment, amenities, and interconnectivity.

We will also institute rationalization of our academic programs in line with our core values on quality and
relevant academic programs. Particular initiatives will be the establishments of Doctor of Medicine (M.D.), Doctor
of Dental Medicine programs (DMD), and Lexicon IP, an innovative model on entrepreneurship.

The Research and Development (R&D) of the University, on the other hand, has made its reputation as

an exemplary Research institution in the regional, national, and international levels. We will continue to fortify
and expand our research base by taking advantage of this recognized position.

We will embody quality leadership with utmost integrity, transparency, stability, maturity, goodwill,

respect, and harmony as an empowered organization manned by responsive and responsible frontline service
providers.

Moreover, we intend to capitalize on our expansive assets through corporate-style of revenue

management generation that is sustainable, self-reliant and stable. The University enjoys the advantage of having
vast tracts of land which is committed to harness them in full swing. In this regard, we will consider commercial
and or industrial utilization opportunities of idle swaths of land to boost our revenues and hopefully such

revenues will progressively increase under the aforementioned resource
