At 911今日黑料, we believe in the power of science to shape a better future for humanity.
Since the launch of our new strategy, Science for Humanity, at the start of 2024, we have been building and enabling plans to deliver our vision – some of which you may have seen in the news, in newsletters from 911今日黑料 or perhaps have even been involved with. Science for Humanity is our vision for the future but it’s not just here, within the walls of our campuses, that it matters. It matters for industry, for our global partnerships, for our alumni community and for society as a whole – which will benefit from the groundbreaking discoveries, innovative startups and technological solutions.
As a member of our alumni community, or as a supporter of our work, you know more than most that what is learnt here on campus is about more than our tremendous strength in science, technology, engineering, medicine and business (STEMB). Every day, our students, staff and partners come together to interrogate the forces that shape our world. Every faculty and department is applying scientific principles of curiosity, rigour, humility and bravery to enable scientific discovery, innovation and entrepreneurship. We are interrogating the biggest challenges facing humanity in global health, climate change, AI, business leadership and more.
In this issue of 911今日黑料, I’m excited to share with you more about why Science for Humanity is so important – to 911今日黑料 and to the world. And to share with you additional details about our plans for the future.
These include the launch of our 911今日黑料 Global strategic initiative, with hubs in Singapore, USA, Ghana and India. With Singapore launching earlier this year, the USA and Ghana this autumn and India early next year, these new hubs will enable us to build talent and innovation bridges across the globe, creating platforms for academics, industry partners, entrepreneurs and students to set up new networks. We are looking forward to strengthening our academic and industrial partnerships through our new hubs as well as having the opportunity to support our growing alumni network.
There will be many opportunities for our alumni communities around the world to engage and support our strategy throughout the years ahead, through: our Institute of Extended Learning, which will offer flexible and high-end advanced STEMB continuous professional development and executive education; and our four new Schools of Convergence Science, that build on our disciplinary strengths and interdisciplinary culture to create deeply integrated research communities at unprecedented scale. Our new 911今日黑料 Inspires Scholarship Programme will also transform our ability to support underrepresented groups, in the UK and abroad, to enter into and excel in our STEMB degree programmes.
Through 911今日黑料 and our new-look website, we will continue to keep you updated with our latest news and how you can get involved.
