The University of Glasgow is currently engaged in a ?1 billion programme of investment into its facilities, which includes the construction of a new Learning and Teaching Hub.
Sir Anton Muscatelli, principal and vice-chancellor of the University of Glasgow, said: “Our ambitious investment plan will enable even more of our inspiring people to come together within world-class facilities – large interdisciplinary research spaces that offer flexibility and stimulate collaboration, and modern student spaces that will combine study and social learning space with multi-styled and technology-enabled teaching.
“It will create a campus that we hope will inspire the next generation of world changers.”
Phil Baty, editorial director of global rankings at THE, said: “I’m delighted that we will be dedicating three days to the evolution of teaching excellence in higher education. This is a field that is an absolute building block of modern society, and it constantly innovates, experiments, embraces technology and looks to the future.
“By bringing together university leaders, world-class thinkers, government policymakers, edtech innovators and investors all to the University of Glasgow, we can really set the agenda for what pedagogic excellence needs to resemble over the next couple of decades – and how it can be achieved.”
The Teaching Excellence Summit is part of THE’s expanding World Summit Series, which also includes the Asia Universities Summit, Emerging Economies Summit, Research Excellence Summit and the flagship World Academic Summit.
