Introduction
Strategic planning is considered an administrative tool deployed generally by university presidency, different faculties, centers, and units to fulfill their goals and objectives within a specific period of time, through investing the available physical and human resources efficiently.
Strategic planning contributes in fulfilling the desired outcomes for all internal stakeholders (faculty staff and administrative staff) and external stakeholders (students, employers, governmental community organizations, and nongovernmental community organizations), through a systematic approach that documents the general track of the university for the next five years.
Strategic planning is not only a plan for growth and expansion, But also a constitution for planning, organizing, aligning, budget retrenchment and reallocation in the light of analysis and assessment of the university priorities.
