Higher education institutions seek to excel in teaching through a wide variety of pedagogies to enhance the knowledge, skills, connections and values which are necessary for students to succeed in today’s world. The idea is to prepare students to an environment where they approach problems with a broad vision, work across disciplines, and collaborate in teams. They help students to build an entrepreneurial approach, empowering them to be innovative and creative. Education excellence ‘prepares students to navigate ambiguity, to utilize their intellectual curiosity to identify and realize opportunities, and to evolve into visionary leaders who seek impactful and ethical solutions for the local, national, and global challenges of our time.’
