Mount Allison has developed a number of planning documents and discussion papers that assist in overall planning at the University.
The plans were developed through broad consultation with the Mount Allison community.

Strategic Research Plan
The Senate Research and Creative Activities Committee developed the University's Strategic Research Plan, which was approved by Senate on Nov. 15, 2016.
The plan identifies:
- strategic objectives and action items to increase the capacity for research and creative activity success at Mount Allison University
- strategic areas of research intensity and emphasis which guide future nominations and appointments in the Canada Research Chairs (CRC) program and which justify future investments through the Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI)
The plan also outlines areas of research intensity and emphasis — thematic areas where Mount Allison has a critical mass of researchers and impact or where there are latent and emerging opportunities.
