AB  -            STRATEGIC PLANNING METHODOLOGY WITHIN       ARCHITECTURAL AND INTERIOR DESIGN TECHNOLOGY                        PROGRAMS     Most Engineering Technology Programs will likely, at some stage of their development andmaturation, face the need to develop a strategic plan in order to chart the course of their future.This often places faculty and administrators of these programs within unfamiliar ground as theystep out of their areas of expertise to find suitable methods to structure their visions and plans.However, without these plans programs may falter and question their direction and lack ofcohesiveness and identity to stand the test of time and the rough waters of the current economicclimate. How often does one question where their program is heading, what makes it unique inthe context of neighboring or encroaching innovation and what are those things that will keep italive in the face of tough, fiscal decisions? How does one develop a clear vision and plan thatwill ground program development at every step?     This paper discusses strategic planning by first reviewing the literature relevant to specificengineering technology programs such as Architectural Technology and Interior Design. It thentraces and reviews the steps taken by the Design Technology Programs at XXXX in developingtheir strategic plan. It assesses this particular case by means of reflection and seeks to draw outstrategies for developing strategic plans that are particularly applicable to EngineeringTechnology Design Programs within Post-Secondary Institutes. Following upon researchundertaken by organizational planning theorists who contend that planning for sustainability andlongevity is best done through identifying operating principles (rather than by first determiningspecific objectives), this paper sets out and critiques definitive steps to developing sustainableprograms that can weather the future by being built upon well-thought out methods andprinciples.
