International education for a global society
4 December 2008 - 15:15
This poster presentation outlines the context in which 21st-century universities have to operate and asks whether this type of education provides students the skills they need for successful careers - and lives - as global citizens. The rapid acceleration of technological change underpins the transformation of both individual careers and the development of highly complex workplaces. Successful graduates must be technologically literate, globally astute, operationally agile and internationally mobile. University leaders must understand this if they wish to meet the challenge of providing talent for the global society.
