Carrying on the standards set by our home campus is imperative; entry requirements will remain the same, as will the quality of the programmes we offer.
We attract students through our research and teaching specialisations – we are different from most universities in terms of the mix of postgraduate programmes we offer, for example our aquaculture, retailing, media and finance and accounting specialisms are quite significant.
We offer programmes that are focused on employability, but then so do many other business schools.
A suitable market gap exists for UCL to fill: currently there are no postgraduate degree programmes in the subjects we offer anywhere in the Gulf.
"We offer education programmes, but they are labour intensive and there is so much to be done," she said, and called for more joint working with councils, schools, youth groups, policymakers and politicians.
"We offer specialised programmes, such as business and spirituality, which is for people who want to go a little bit deeper and understand that business is not just about shares and making money; who want to look at what their business is really about," he says.
"Other orchestras also do it, no question, but I think we offered programmes which were able to make a strong statement: an entire cycle of Prokofiev symphonies in many places, lots of Shostakovich and a big variety of Stravinsky".
We offered the programme to all schools, whether public (funded by the government and termed 'charter' schools) or private, which included fee-paying and/or faith schools.
The way we offered PCC can be compared with other screening programmes offered by the GP, for instance cervical and mammal cancer screening programmes.
We need programmes which offer young people unbiased spaces to learn about science and engineering as it is currently constituted – including environmental and human rights concerns – and what it could look like.
We do not partner in the granting of degree programmes and so offer "pure Chicago" programmes with our faculty.
