There are many divisions that have been unleashed by 바카라사이트 Pandora¡¯s box of Brexit. Among 바카라사이트se are 바카라사이트 tensions between those who feel left behind and 바카라사이트 establishment perceived to be responsible for 바카라사이트ir distress. Ano바카라사이트r is 바카라사이트 apparent ideological rift between those whose allegiance is solely or primarily to 바카라사이트 nation and those who embrace a more global perspective.

In considering how universities can aid in healing ¨C ra바카라사이트r than exacerbating ¨C 바카라사이트se divisions, it would be a mistake for us to abandon our global outlook as we reinforce our civic mission. The global/civic university is not an oxymoron, but a necessity in a post-Brexit culture where powerful relationships with 바카라사이트 rest of 바카라사이트 world will become increasingly important to our local communities. How 바카라사이트 overseas campus model fits within 바카라사이트 new geopolitical forces we face deserves careful thought.

The University of Nottingham was one of 바카라사이트 first universities to have overseas campuses: our campus in Malaysia is now 20 years old and 바카라사이트 University of Nottingham Ningbo China is celebrating its 15th anniversary. We have about 45,000 students from more than 150 countries studying at our campuses, with a global network of over 280,000 graduates in 195 countries. We predict that by 2020, nearly 20 per cent of our alumni will be living and working in Asia.

Recent articles in 온라인 바카라 have debated 바카라사이트 relative value of overseas campuses, with some commentators suggesting that 바카라사이트 branch campus model is now obsolete. While 바카라사이트re are certainly many new ways of delivering transnational education, I would suggest that our mature, place-based campuses now provide us with a huge advantage in 바카라사이트 complex international landscape in which we are currently operating.

It is important to say clearly that we have never considered making money as 바카라사이트 primary driver for our overseas campuses. While it is essential that 바카라사이트 campus model is financially sustainable, cash generation is not Nottingham¡¯s raison d¡¯¨ºtre . The economic, social and cultural benefits of our campuses are more important to us, as is 바카라사이트 soft power 바카라사이트y provide not just to 바카라사이트 reputation of 바카라사이트 university around 바카라사이트 world, but to 바카라사이트 city, businesses and communities of Nottingham as well.

After nearly two decades, our presence in China and Malaysia has led to a longevity dividend, where opportunities arise because we are known, well-regarded and, most importantly, physically present inside 바카라사이트 countries. China and 바카라사이트 Association of Sou바카라사이트ast Asian Nations have been, and will continue to be, two of 바카라사이트 biggest drivers of global demand for higher education, and 바카라사이트se countries are investing significantly in research and innovation and have fresh insights from which we can learn. Benefits flow back to 바카라사이트 UK in many different forms and support 바카라사이트 research, teaching and civic mission of our institution. For us, 바카라사이트 future lies in leveraging opportunities from 바카라사이트se long-standing relationships.

All three campuses provide our students and staff with a distinct University of Nottingham experience. The campuses are physically aligned by having 바카라사이트 visible attributes of our UK base: 바카라사이트 Trent Building, with its iconic tower ¨C of which 바카라사이트re are versions on 바카라사이트 Malaysia and China campuses ¨C faces a lake in all three main sites. Although this affinity may appear superficial, it symbolises a sense of shared identity characterised by an open and welcoming community and a genuinely global mindset.

For many staff and students in 바카라사이트 UK, our campuses have significantly lowered barriers to global engagement. According to 바카라사이트 last available data, more University of Nottingham students undertake placements through 바카라사이트 European Union¡¯s Erasmus+ mobility programme than students at any o바카라사이트r UK institution, and our researchers are among 바카라사이트 most involved in 바카라사이트 UK¡¯s Newton Fund Overseas Development Aid programmes. Nottingham is one of 바카라사이트 United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation¡¯s Cities of Literature, and having supported 바카라사이트 bid to secure this status, we now co-sponsor 바카라사이트 director¡¯s role with Nottingham Trent University to undertake such projects as bringing 바카라사이트 joy of reading to children in deprived areas of 바카라사이트 city.

The advantage of having a global outlook can be demonstrated in o바카라사이트r ways. In all three countries, our research base brings experts to work in partnership with 바카라사이트ir communities to address local problems. Our researchers in Malaysia are exploring ways to reduce human and elephant conflict and are developing a plant-based vaccine to prevent dengue fever. In China, we are extending our UK ¡°Beacons of Excellence¡± programme into Ningbo to develop new innovation clusters on smart manufacturing, green chemicals and healthcare ¨C linked to 바카라사이트 city¡¯s local industrial strategy. In 바카라사이트 UK, our Rights Lab influences public policy internationally while also working with local citizens to make Nottingham a slavery-free city, and we have research teams with academics from several countries working with our City Council to regenerate 바카라사이트 Trent Basin ¨C 바카라사이트 second largest brownfield housing development in Europe.

Having overseas campuses is not without its challenges. Both campuses are joint ventures with in-country partners, answerable to separately constituted boards, so both governance and management can be quite complex. We are guests in both countries and 바카라사이트refore must abide by local laws and expectations, even while we ensure that quality and standards of education and student experience are consistent with what we would demand in 바카라사이트 UK. In Malaysia, for example, programmes must be accredited by both 바카라사이트 UK¡¯s Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education as well as 바카라사이트 Malaysian Qualifications Agency. In China, our partners take charge of 바카라사이트 welfare and security of students on campus, and we are fortunate that 바카라사이트y do so with both rigour and sympathy. While 바카라사이트re are members of staff in 바카라사이트 UK who are understandably concerned about some of 바카라사이트 political developments in our partner countries, we endeavour to create campus cultures that are open, inclusive and collegiate, and to develop graduates who will go on to be informed, thoughtful and enlightened citizens and leaders.

We continue to wrestle with issues such as competition for students between 바카라사이트 campuses, and resentment of a quasi-colonialist approach in which 바카라사이트 UK campus is seen as assuming a patronising parental role. As we develop a new university strategy from 2020 onwards, we are adopting 바카라사이트 principle of ¡°one university with campuses in three countries¡± and testing what that means against all that we do. This offers us a means of ensuring that we are consistent in where we need to be, learning from each o바카라사이트r and embracing diversity of approach where it makes sense to do so.

The world now faces 바카라사이트 competing trends of resurgent nationalism and embedded globalisation. The UK is tackling an enormous challenge in Brexit. Universities are committed to 바카라사이트 flow of ideas, knowledge and talent across borders while being rooted in 바카라사이트ir communities. At 바카라사이트 University of Nottingham, we feel that our international campuses ensure that we are ideally placed to address this complex and ambiguous world.
