Panel Discussion Panel
New Models for Tertiary Education
Date Friday, Nov 29 Time – RoomPotsdam I
What does it take for an organisation like a university to transform itself to embrace change and innovation - and where do you start to help it take the first steps? This panel of university leaders will explore not only what they do differently in their organisations and how this might be applied elsewhere, but also how they address some of the key challenges facing higher education today. How to realise the transformative potential of higher education will be at the heart of this conversation.
