The Future of Higher Education: Competition, Collaboration and the Global Good
Our International Centre for Higher Education Management (ICHEM) supports critical research, leadership and practice to strengthen the innovative capacity of higher education, including our DBA in Higher Education Management, which constitute the largest group of managers researching higher education worldwide.
Bringing together students, alumni and established academic staff, the conference is an excellent opportunity for you to hear about and discuss the research and leadership practices that have contributed to innovation for the public good within HE over the last 25 years.
The programme will include distinguished keynote speakers, including Simon Marginson (University of Oxford, Director, Centre for Global Higher Education), Arnoud De Meyer (Previous President, Singapore Management University),
Jose Manual Restrepo Abondano (Rector Universidad EIA, Previous Minister of Finance for Columbia) and our own Rajani Naidoo (University of Bath, Vice President and Co-Director, ICHEM). There will also be opportunities for showcasing DBA research and innovative practice as well as excellent networking opportunities and sharing expertise on career progression.
The conference will be opened by our Vice-Chancellor, Professor Ian White, and our Dean, Professor Steve Brammer. We are very privileged to also hear from the founder of ICHEM/DBA, Professor Richard Mawditt.
