Our Strategic Plan
Introduction
In 2011 the AUE published its first strategic plan following a survey of the membership. The document sets out to explain the Association of University Engineers strategy for the next 5 years. In 2014 the strategic plan was reviewed and the membership surveyed in order to produce an updated 2014 document.
This strategy helps to make sure that the Association achieves its strategic aims and ensures continuity.
The primary aim of the AUE is to serve the membership and to ensure that we continuously provide support, information and best practice guidance.
We will listen to our membership and seek to continuously develop and improve to meet their needs
