2016年高等教育计划在亚洲(HEPA)论坛介绍： HEPA论坛为亚洲大学的规划者和管理者提供了一个分享高等教育实践，一起互动的网络平台。 之前在香港、首尔、北京和新加坡的举办过前四个论坛，2016年是HEPA举行的第五年，吸引了来自整个亚洲、澳大利亚、新西兰、俄罗斯和美国等200多名参与者。 2016年HEPA论坛在澳大利亚悉尼的纽卡斯尔大学,4月14日至15日举行，论坛主题是“塑造策略,提供视角”。接下来将陆续分享演讲嘉宾十分钟精彩的演讲内容。本期嘉宾：Khin Yong Lam 演讲稿 我的演讲的主要内容主要是关于推动发展与创新的全球化中的创新。对于新加坡而言，我们有很多的机会和跨越几个时区的国家在商业方面进行合作。因此我认为对于新加坡，对于其他的国家，比如香港，澳大利亚而言，共同面临的问题首先是人口老龄化，其次就是城市人口密度收缩，当然，经济的转型也是非常重要的问题。我们有着城市知识资源，也有人力资源中心。因此，新加坡政府将新加坡的大学视作解决新加坡问题以及促进新加坡进一步发展的关键角色。 我们在南洋理工大学所进行的一些工作主要就是确保我们能够对政府工作有所帮助，主要是为我们需要快速发展的程序招揽更多的公司，并且确保他们能够进行长期投资。为此我们已经组合成了一个整体。这就是我们为提高研究影响力，推动创新发展而在学校所施行的计划。我们将南洋理工大学推向世界舞台，这是一个协作性的世界，任何大学都可以参与其中。因此在我们学校所施行的计划—一项与公司合作以推动创新的计划也是可以在他国试用的。屏幕上的“W”所代表的是为什么学术主管人可以组织许多人才与研究战略？我们始终坚信政府部门，大学以及公司企业之间有着密不可分的联系，并且其他二者的蓬勃发展有赖于研究组织的发展。除了看到这些联系之外，我们还需要能够将这一联系进行拓展与深化。在深化拓展经济发展时我们所遇到的问题就和之前展现给各位看的那样，人口老龄化等等。这不仅仅只是一个部门应该解决的问题，对于社科类学科而言也是亟待解决的问题。作为一所理工科大学，我们之前向学生提供机械工程方面的指导，后来在前几年我们又不断拓展学科门类，将学科拓展到了社会科学，自然科学等等。这是非常重要的举措，因为我们很多问题的解决之道就是蕴藏其中。在招揽自然学科方面的人才时我们投资力度还不够大，因此需要像人力资源部一样的机构，基本上我们可以招募来自于全球的教职工以及学生。我们学校的国际本科生大约占所有学生人数的17％。你也可以看到甚至是在我们招募人才时，我们是从毕业生以及教授中都会进行挑选的。我们的中心战略是坚持海外学院与本地公司之间有着某种联系。在我们开始关注这样的联系之前，我们一直在研究所谓的“企业、研究与创新”。所以我们现在进行的一个项目事关接下来五年中的一千九百万，之前的一个项目则是涉及一千六百万。政府与研究机构为公司提供了咨询服务，这也是我们需要好好研究的一个方面。对于南洋理工大学的这一方面我们还是特别满意的，因为我们在理工中心建设方面还是屈指可数的。如果要说为什么我们对这些关系这么感兴趣，一部分原因是经济的发展可以为新加坡保留更为强大的发展动力。在新加坡发展高级制造业，他们就需要切切实实地做好这个行业，他们将我们大学视作一个发展的基础。我想很多大学在启动这样的事情方面还是非常得心应手的，但是提到创新就较为逊色了。即便是在我们学校，这一方面也依然亟待改进，我们为此已经做出了诸多努力。 这张图表所展示的是我们不仅仅是在做研究，不仅仅是教授和学生想着发表好的科学论文，除此之外我们还在寻找较好地公司。从这些图你可以看到我们对亚洲以及欧洲的国家的公司进行了大力投资，美国也有一家。在合作这一重要事项方面，我们不仅仅是进行研究，还有其他更为重要的事情。未来可能发生的一件事情就是宝马公司将与我们合作，因为我们已经被选为与之合作的七所学校之一。我们在法国也有一个组织，近期在那里开展了一个小型项目，因此我们不仅仅是在国内进行发展，我们也在寻找国外的发展空间。 深化院校与其他二者的联系也是一件非常重要的事情，因为我们的大学不仅仅是进行项目研究，我们也非常重视学生教育。因此我们所完成的一件关键事项就是使其他学校前来参加我们的项目。这样一来也就可以鼓励来自我们学校的教授以及海外的教授对学生进行悉心照料。学生可能在本校学习两到三年，然后花一到两年时间去国外学习。过去的两年中我们已经将这个项目开展了起来。这是培养新加坡人才的一种方式。那些来自不同的社会，展现出了自己国家特色的人越多，我们可以学习的模式也就越多。因此我们不仅仅和本校的各个部门的教授合作，我们也和全世界的大学合作。 我们最为成功的一个项目是和欧洲同僚共同进行的，这个项目的发展有很强的动力而且也是项目有着最为基础的研究保障，同时也尽力教好学生。日前我们有50个德国留学生，这个项目尚未有博士学位，但是我们还是对这个项目中非常优秀的学生进行追踪。这个项目最为鲜明的特点就是企业的参与，我们试着将公司带入其中。在我演讲的最后，我想跟大家分享一下新加坡是如何对世界的创新进程做出自己的贡献的。屏幕最后一张图片显示出的是我们非常擅长于吸收外国学生。经济的发展至关重要，在我们研究项目中的学生日后是可以到相关企业进行工作的。用这个方法我们会接着培养出优秀的人才并且吸引公司对新加坡进行投资。 演讲原文 My presentation is about driving innovation in globalization of research and development. For Singapore, we have flight zone and we have a lot of opportunities in doing business with countries, so the challenges for Singapore, the challenges for many countries including Australia, Hong KONG, first is the aging population, next is urban density dissolution, and of course economic restructuring is also very important. We have country knowledge resources; we also have human resources capital. So, the governments look at the universities in Singapore as being a key role to help solve these problems and bring us to a higher level. What we have done in NTU is basically how do we make sure that we help the government, in terms of attracting companies to what we need fast process and make sure they will continuously invest in Singapore. And we have a blend as a segment. So, this is basically how we implement the plan in NTU in boosting research impact and innovation. So, what we do is we take NTU to the world, a union world means basically this is a world for any university, so this implementation panned for NTU to cooperate with companies to drive the innovation. So, the first “W” stands for why the academic portfolio always organizing the talent pool and are of course of research strategy and we very much believe that the relationship, which involve government agency, university and company, and of course the outstanding departments who rely on the research organization in the three and this does not just link finally you need to deepening this bound-ship. This how we do. And widening economic portfolio is that many problems that I show you previously like aging populations and so on. It is not just a problem for segment faculty, it is also a problem for humanities social sciences. So, as a technological university we start to offer instruction on engineering science, but recently, during the last few years we have expanded this to social sciences, natural sciences and so on. This is very important because many of these problems are quite need this kind of resolution. Next organizing of talent pool is a mission that we do not invest in natural sciences resources, so we need resources like human capital, basically what we do is to recruit faculties and students from all over the world. Our undergraduate students population about 17％of foreign students. You can see even the recruitment of talents it both in seniors and full professors. Next our central strategy, we believe that very much in relationship between company and overseas institution and university. And before we start this, we always look at the so-called RIE, so the current one is about Singapore 19 million for next 5 years, and the previous is actually 16 million. Research founding and government have offered consultation companies and this is actually what we need to go into and we are well pleased in NTU for we have a well-established confront level which is the largest technological center. You may ask why we are so interested in that, part of this is because the economy development in actually beneficial for assembly engines in Singapore. Because we are doing high level manufacturing in Singapore they need to do it indeed, they have chosen us to be the basis to do it. I think many universities are very good at generating these kind of things, but not so good in innovation. Even in NTU, this is also one of the point need to be improved. And in the last few years we worked very hard to confirm it. The chart shows that we are not just conducting the research, the professors, the students are busy generating good scientific papers. So we are looking for good companies as engineering on top of that. You can see from these maps that we are devoting manly companies in Asia, Europe and one in US. And in terms of significant collaboration, it covers conducting research and other important things. BMW decided that they want to work with and we are one of the seven in their chosen in the future. We also have French organization, recently we start a small program in there, so we are not just looking into things which are growing in our land, but also in overseas space. Next deepening of institutional bound-ship is very important, while our university is not just research projects, we also filled with important students. So, one of the key things we have done is some of the universities are joining this program. And that encourages professors from both university of NTU and overseas to ensure that the students are well taken of. This is very important because it helps to attract best students. This is just like students spend two or three years in NTU, one or two years in other colleges. Over the last two years we have joined these programs. This is one way of creating talents in Singapore. These people from their own society which shows their countries’ features, the more citation can be found. Not only do we work with faculties in NTU, we also work across university. One of our most successful projects is working with an European program. It has mobility and ensure the program has basic research and try the best to teach students. Currently we have 50 German students in NTU. This program has not joined PHD, but we still want to track the best students, and the key feature of this program is the industry component, we try to bring companies in. This the end of my presentation where I am going to show you we get to the world to ensure that we contribute to the world innovation process in Singapore. The last slight is about we are good at recruiting students all around the world. It is very important to contribute to economy, students who are in our projects can work in relating industry. With this we will continue to cultivate talents in the world, as well as companies invest in Singapore. Thank you. （演讲者：Khin Yong Lam，Nan Yang Technological University。说明：本文根据会议现场记录整理，未经本人审阅。） 相关推荐： 【HEPA研讨会】澳大利亚天主大学战略规划制定实行情况及面临的挑战 ------------------------END-----------------------
