“Universities tend to be an anchor in the way we see institutions. The thing for me is to ask, ‘How do we remain a place with a great tradition of learning?’ And at the same time, ‘How do we do things that are responsive, flexible and relevant?’ ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵapp university has a fantastic tradition of being adaptive in that way. You can see the effort we’ve put into making sure that graduates who leave ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵapp have got skill sets that give them fantastic career opportunities but also respond to the immediacy of the job market.â€
