In this webinar, panellists discuss the future of universities in the context of changing society, academic-student relationships, creativity and the global social challenges.
Josie McLellan, co-author of 'Who are Universities For?', focuses on how universities of the future might be more flexible. Concentrating all of one's higher education into three full-time years from 18-21 needs rethinking as the pace of technological and social change accelerates further, and most people have longer working lives.
Anke Schwittay, author of 'Creative Universities', speaks about how universities of the future can better combine critical and creative teaching to help students better understand global challenges but also imagine alternative responses to them.
Jennie Bristow, co-author of 'Generational Encounters with Higher Education', discusses different generational expectations and experiences of university, focusing on the enduring importance of the academic-student relationship. How can universities of the future better navigate the tension between developing educational communities and promoting students as consumers of a wider 'university experience’?
Julia Mortimer, Journals and Open Access Director at Bristol University Press, looks at how the university press fits with the mission of the university, supporting the way academia and teaching is changing and looking to address the global social challenges.
The event is chaired by Ed Fay, Director of Library Services and University Librarian at the University of Bristol and Chair of the Bristol University Press Library Advisory Board.
