	TRANSFORMING UNIVERSITIES TOWARDS WORLD-CLASS RESEARCH
10.50 — 11.30	Opening keynote Alain Fuchs, president of PSL Research University, and former president of the French National Centre for Scientific Research, will deliver his keynote reflection on the future of fundamental research in the natural sciences and the strategies leaders need to take now to secure the sustainability of fundamental research against the predicted pressures affecting the university by 2030. It would draw on the new data THE has gathered from surveying 200 university presidents around the world, (published on September 20th) and ask him, as a pre-eminent university leader, to reflect on the findings and the lessons that all future leaders must heed if they wish to protect and promote fundamental research in the natural sciences in their universities over the next 12 years.

13.10 — 13.55	THE session: Building global brand awareness, reputation and effective communication strategies for promoting research impact In a competitive global marketplace, a strong brand and reputation are essential to attract international students, partnerships, investment and talent. Utilising data and best-practice examples, this session will explore some of the factors that enhance universities’ brands and reputations, and examine strategies for communicating research impact effectively. Michael Lubacz, brand director, THE Location: Building B, Main entrance, room B2, NUST MISIS



14.00 — 15.15	Panel discussion: Can what counts be counted? A panel debate of global experts will further explore what are the most effective means of evaluating performance — can what counts be counted? Who is being best served by measures for evaluating research performance — do they work for the benefit of governments, industry, university leadership, faculty? How much do they actually improve the quality of research? Chair: Duncan Ross, chief data officer, THE Marat Fatkoulline, government advisor for Russia, Elsevier Sally Jeffery, partner, education and skills global leaders, PwC Chun Lu, vice-president, Southern University of Science and Technology Heekyung Park, vice-president for research and development, KAIST Andrei Volkov, deputy chair, Council on Competitiveness Enhancement of Russian Universities (Project 5-100) Location: Engineering Prototyping Centre, ground floor, NUST MISIS








15.15 — 15.45	Networking refreshments Location: Building B, 2^nd floor, foyer, NUST MISIS
15.45 — 17.15	Breakout session 1: THE data masterclass This data masterclass will go through the methodology and latest insights from the four new THE subject rankings. Times Higher Education’s data scientists and a senior leader from Elsevier will explain the methodology and answer questions on the findings and impact of the ranking. Jeroen Bass, head of data science, Elsevier Phil Baty, chief knowledge officer, THE Duncan Ross, chief data officer, THE Location: Engineering Prototyping Centre, ground floor, NUST MISIS





15.45 — 17.15	Breakout session 2: Academic communication in the development of science A panel of experts in language development and communication will explore the impact of the English language in the globalisation of science and ask whether institutions in emerging economies where English-language teaching is less mature and accessible can find alternative means of contributing to the worldwide pool of knowledge. If having a common language is essential for effective international communication, does this create an in-built advantage in rankings for all English-speaking universities? How does this effect the education and training of non-native English speaking students, if they either receive lectures in their second language (doing an English-language course), or are taught by someone speaking English as their second-language, OR are limited to only being taught by non-international lecturers. As the higher education sector globalizes, is the Humboldtian ideal of a unity of research and teaching impossible outside the Anglophone world?
