Strategic planning is a tool widely used in business, industries and non-profit organizations and has been recently adopted in academia. However, because their own characteristics, the strategic plans in colleges and universities are mostly developed at an institutional level. As these provide an overview of the organization, they cannot be very detailed and may contain a certain amount of ambiguities in order to satisfy its multiple constituencies. At the institutional level there are limited opportunities to include specific strategies that may affect individual academic programs. To solve these limitations, this paper proposes strategic plans being developed and incorporated at the program level, specifically for electrical engineering or electrical engineering technology programs. The appropriate strategic planning results in strengthen these programs and generate useful and significant dialog among their constituencies. The paper finishes by showing a generic strategic plan for an electrical engineering technology program that can nevertheless, be adopted and modified as needed by faculty and academic staff involved in this process of creating a similar plan for their own electrical engineering programs.

战略计划是商业，行业和非营利组织中广泛使用的工具，最近在学术界已被采用。但是，由于自身的特点，高校的战略计划大多是在机构层面上制定的。由于这些内容提供了组织的概述，因此它们不能非常详细，并且可能包含一定数量的歧义，以便满足其多个群体。在机构一级，包含可能影响个别学术课程的特定策略的机会有限。为了解决这些局限性，本文提出了在计划级别制定并纳入的战略计划，特别是针对电气工程或电气工程技术计划的战略计划。适当的战略规划可以加强这些计划，并在其支持者之间产生有用而重要的对话。本文最后显示了一个电气工程技术计划的通用战略计划，但是，参与此过程的教师和学术人员可以根据需要采用和修改此计划，以为其制定自己的电气工程计划。
