  13. World-Class Universities “everyone wants one, no one knows what it is, and no one knows how to get one” (Altbach 2004).

  14. World-Class Universities “everyone wants one, no one knows what it is, and no one knows how to get one” (Altbach 2004). 30+ countries have launched excellence initiatives since 2005 Excellence Strategy (Germany) Institutions of Eminence (India) 5-100 Academic Excellence Project (Russian Federation) Double First (China) Top Global University (Japan) Brain Korea 21 Plus (South Korea)

  15. Establishing World-Class Universities Three basic strategies can be followed to establish world-class universities: ….. upgrading a small number of existing universities that have the potential of excelling (picking winners). ….. encourage a number of existing institutions to merge and transform into a new university that would achieve the type of synergies corresponding to a world-class institution (hybrid formula). ….. create new world-class universities from scratch (clean-slate approach). The Challenge of Establishing World-Class Universities - Salmi J. The World Bank 2009

  16. Characteristics of a World Class University: Alignment of Key Factors The Road to Academic Excellence: The making of a World Class Research University - Altbach P and Salmi J. The World Bank 2011

  17. The Idea of a University “The University is a community of scholars engaged in the task of seeking truth… It is intended not merely as a place of instruction; rather the student is to participate actively in research and from this experience he is to acquire the intellectual discipline and education which will remain with him throughout his life.” Karl Jaspers, The Idea of a University, 1923

  18. “Hybrid vigour” “As you build a team, you bring together diverse people to provide the most effective views. Individuals brought up in different educational systems and with exposure to different societies and markets approach problems differently: thus, international teams broaden and augment individual thinking.” Alice Gast, President, Imperial College London
