Administrative history
The Office of Strategic and Academic Planning was renamed the Strategic Planning Office (SPO) in 2009, and senior management closed it down in July 2012.
From 2009 to 2012, SPO published an internal issue of the Planning Brief twice a year. The aim was to inform and support the planning and decision-making processes of Senior Management and related academic and administrative offices.
Archival history

Scope and content
In February 2009, the University Grants Committee published its Review Report, which recommended one of two options for the Hong Kong Institute of Education to “develop into a multidisciplinary, institution with a focus on education and other complementary disciplines, primarily offering undergraduate and postgraduate degree programmes and undertaking research and research training”. The Review Report provided a clear roadmap for the Institute’s development into an education-focused, multidisciplinary institute with strong research capabilities.
In January 2012, the Institute submitted a report entitled Final Preparation for University Title to the Education Bureau of the Government of the HKSAR. The report articulated that the Institute has transformed into a university-level institution providing multidisciplinary programs at all levels and conducting active research.
This file contains the agenda and minutes of the Steering Committee on University Title, which was responsible for adopting strategies for the re‑submission to the Government of the HKSAR and for considering and endorsing the draft Re‑submission Documents for Academic Board consideration and Council approval.
In addition, the file includes multiple draft versions of the Final Preparation for University Title, reflecting revisions made during the drafting process.
