NTU Strategy 2026-2031

Turning potential into opportunity

Our Strategy 2026-2031 sets out how we will build on our strengths to change lives, advance knowledge and create lasting impact locally, nationally and globally.

We generate knowledge through igniting curiosity, research and innovation. We share and apply it through education that stretches, inspires and empowers. We connect in partnership with those who share our ambition to create meaningful change for individuals, communities and society. That is what defines NTU.

These principles are reflected in our two core areas:

Education and Experience

We will provide high-quality, inclusive and future-focused education that enables students from all backgrounds to succeed, belong and achieve their ambitions.

Research and Innovation

We will strengthen impactful research and innovation, working across disciplines and with partners to translate ideas into economic, social, cultural, and environmental benefits.

How our Strategy is enabled

  • Partnerships that turn knowledge into impact
  • Spaces that foster connection, collaboration and wellbeing
  • Technology that supports innovation and responsible use of AI and other emerging technologies
  • Finances that are responsibly managed to ensure long-term sustainability and resilience
  • Governance that upholds transparency, accountability and integrity

A Strategy built on partnership

Our partnerships will enable us to deliver our purpose.

Working alongside students, employers, communities, industry, public services and partners around the world, we will co-create solutions to society's most pressing challenges and turn knowledge into action.

Together, we will expand opportunity, drive innovation and create positive change that benefits people, places and the planet.
