鈥淯niversities tend to be an anchor in the way we see institutions. The thing for me is to ask, 鈥楬ow do we remain a place with a great tradition of learning?鈥� And at the same time, 鈥楬ow do we do things that are responsive, flexible and relevant?鈥� 51茶馆 university has a fantastic tradition of being adaptive in that way. You can see the effort we鈥檝e put into making sure that graduates who leave 51茶馆 have got skill sets that give them fantastic career opportunities but also respond to the immediacy of the job market.鈥�
