SCHOOL MISSION
4
ADAPTING TO A NEW WORLD ORDER Our passion, commitment and drive to live our School Mission and ‘engage in the highest quality research and education to have a positive impact on a changing world’ has never been more evident.
The world has undergone radical transformation as a result of COVID-19 and at times we have been tested to our limits. But we have remained steadfast in our pursuit of excellence and in service of our many communities. Through our mindset of innovation, we have been re-imagining, re-designing and remaking everything we do, applying both the innovations and safeguards necessary to deal with an unpredictable world pandemic. In 2019, as we completed the re-accreditation process to maintain our esteemed triple accreditation and affirm our place among the world’s best business schools, our international accreditors praised our many endeavours but also the ‘positive energy and shared purpose of our community’. It is this energy and purpose that has driven us forward in 2020. We transformed over 850 business units to an online format in an incredibly short time-frame to ensure our 18,000-plus students could continue their world-class studies online, no matter their location. We also tackled many entrenched processes to create dynamic new solutions, such as successfully executing more than 80,000 exams online through a variety of delivery methods to students around the world.
