Blueprints for a First Global University Concept

Full Session Description (as long as you would like):

The largest, best funded, most respected higher education system in the world is being held back by its history, mission, and some outdated structural elements. As a result, it has not been able to expand beyond the United States borders and has very limited capacity to satisfy the global and mobile demand for premium American education. By freeing itself from regional borders, the American university of the future can also free itself from many institutional inefficiencies, while embracing new educational and business models. This presentation outlines the blueprints for a truly global higher education concept by discussing current industry problems and barriers to globalization, and by offering concrete solutions.

In other words: Everybody in the world wants American education. It is time for an existing institution, a partnership of institutions, or a de novo institution to build a truly global American education brand. This “First Global University” would market and deliver premium American higher education globally, versus US-only availability. Such an institution has the potential to become the biggest, and the best, education institution in the world.
