The future of the university as we know it is under threat, says a report from EY (Ernst & Young). This research recommends that to survive, universities take a “future-back” approach, looking to 2030, reinvent themselves by setting a radical transformation in the operating models. Disruption from temporary remote learning may be just the tip of the iceberg. The report, titled Are universities of the past still the future?, highlights that challenges thrown by the COVID pandemic could rapidly develop into existential threats for universities. Leaders from institutions in the US, UK, India, Singapore, and Australia participated in the research.
