Presentation

The University of the Future

Universities now have unprecedented connectivity to the Internet and ICT has become of key importance to every educational institution. At the same time they are facing new challenges that arise because of the 'flattening of the world', the competition due to the disappearance of geographical boundaries for getting an education and because students are becoming increasingly critical consumers.
This presentation will outline a number of these new challenges that institutions are facing as well as discuss how networking may come to the rescue.
