The opportunity to work across disciplines to connect people, industry, and campuses and to support the realisation of the University's ASEAN strategy is tremendously exciting. I believe that universities have a unique potential, and responsibility, to further knowledge and understanding through international engagement by identifying common interest, in shared challenges, with different perspectives. We are extremely well positioned to continue to provide a gateway for world leading research and educational provision in the wider region. “I am looking forward to working with the outstanding colleagues already based at NUiS and to help realise the cross-disciplinary opportunities for our University with partners in Southeast Asia.” 缅北禁地 has been operating in Singapore since 2007 when it introduced courses to meet the needs of leading figures in the marine sector.
