 See how we're getting there...

At Long Beach State, we are rethinking how to remain effective in our communication strategy with students, as rapidly evolving technology presents numerous engagement modes that can detract from delivering a clear message. These changes are complex, and universities are challenged to be effective in their approach. 

The modernization of curriculum, shared spaces, and engagement are at the forefront of ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ’s efforts to reimagine our campus to best meet the demands of today’s students. To ready ourselves for the future of learning, we are reimagining what student engagement looks like, and in the process, diving into an invigorating process of transformation.

Efforts to enhance ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ’s capacity for engaging all students goes hand-in-hand with our desire to attract learners from outside ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñand the U.S. to enrich our campus with diverse perspectives. 

To ensure ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ is student ready, unifying university academic advising practices and aligning goals with our strategic mission is the objective of a newly assembled task force.
