Driven by Innovation, Guided by Purpose: Our Strategic Roadmap
The Faculty of Pharmacy, Mahidol University (MUPY) is dedicated to driving global academic and healthcare excellence through a robust, inclusive, and forward-looking strategic planning framework. Our strategic direction directly aligns with Mahidol University’s priorities and Thailand’s national health vision.
Strategic Planning Process
MUPY operates on a 4-year strategic planning cycle (2024–2027) corresponding to the Dean’s term of office, complemented by annual operational action plans.
- 11-Step Framework: A structured process divided into Strategy Formulation (Steps 1–5) and Strategy Implementation & Execution (Steps 6–11).
- Inclusive Engagement: Formulated through continuous, year-round input from key internal and external stakeholders—including academic and non-academic staff, students, preceptors, practitioners, alumni, employers, and regulators.
- National & University Alignment: Regularly realigned with Mahidol University policies and national healthcare strategies to ensure maximum social impact.
Strategy Cascade and Communication
To ensure our strategic vision and core values (MAHIDOL–PY Values) are embedded into daily operations across all departments, MUPY employs an active communication framework:
- Performance Accountability: Strategies are translated into actionable projects and performance indicators through annual Performance Agreements (PAs) for all executive and department heads.
- Open & Transparent Dialogue: Annual “Dean Connect” (Town Hall) meetings and stakeholder forums maintain shared understanding across all organizational levels.
- Cultivating Shared Culture: Strategic directions and values are integrated into new staff orientation programs and celebrated through annual employee recognition awards.
