Today's universities face an array of unprecedented challenges, including tuition fee hikes, shortages of research funding, the ascent of artificial intelligence, and political interference. What must universities embrace to remain relevant and impactful in a rapidly changing world?
The Hang Lung Mathematics Awards and Asia Society Hong Kong Center are honored to co-host a panel featuring two renowned university leaders: Professor Nancy Rothwell and Professor Lap-Chee Tsui. Professor Rothwell was the first female Vice-Chancellor of the University of Manchester. Over her 14-year tenure, both student enrollment and research funding saw notable increases. She also chaired the Russell Group of top British universities from 2020 to 2023. Professor Tsui, during his decade-long service as Vice-Chancellor, enhanced the University of Hong Kong's international standing and supervised the construction of a new modern campus which increased the university's space by 35%. He was also the Founding President of the Hong Kong Academy of Sciences from 2015 to 2022. The two esteemed educators, in conversation with Professor Nick Rawlins, Pro-Vice-Chancellor at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, will speak from their invaluable personal experiences as they delve into the roles and value of universities in the 21st century.
In collaboration with Asia Society Hong Kong Center, this event forms part of the Hang Lung Mathematics Awards Public Talk series under the theme "Shaping our Future". It aims to underscore the significance and importance of basic sciences in our rapidly evolving world.
