Listen "S02E02 - Future of Higher Education"
Episode Synopsis
Accommodation Matters, bringing sector experts together to discuss the Higher Education sector’s key issues through the lens of student accommodation.
Our April edition is all about the future of Higher Education, with Alister Wilson of Waverley Management Consultants providing provocations on what this might look like. Our panel considers the impact of Covid on established modes of university teaching and learning, the changing nature of jobs and skills as we enter the Fourth Industrial Revolution, and how course structures might change to accommodate lifelong learning.
Darren Ellis returns as host, and he’s joined by:
Professor Sue Rigby, Vice Chancellor at Bath Spa University
Ian Dunn, Provost at Coventry University
Paul Sweeney, Chief Strategy Officer at Unite Students
Unite Students is the UK’s largest provider of PBSA, housing around 74,000 students in our 173 properties, which are based in 25 leading university towns and cities.
Accommodation Matters was produced by Alex Parsons.
