“Do we want our children to be taught by the best in the world?”

If the answer is yes, then we cannot run away from increasing our research work and publication.

This was the question asked by the former Vice Chancellor of the National University of Singapore when they embarked on their internationalisation programme some 25 years ago, tells Dr Kurunathan, who is also a member of the secretariat for ranking and improving performance at UM.

We are trying to attract the best brains, especially Malaysians working overseas, and constantly improve our research facilities and support staff. Another thing is to wake up the academics we already have here to produce more quality work.”
