## Resource

Professor Imad Hoballah, VP for Institutional Advancement & External Relations at American University of Ras Al Khaimah (AURAK) joins host, Dr. Ashraf Mahate. Listen in to hear his insights on: Encouraging students to learn through failure and discovery, rather than memorisation, recalling an early project failure and being told "If you're not failing, you're not pushing boundaries". Equipping students for future jobs, not disappearing ones, and why any university not integrating industry into its programs is doing its students and community a disservice. Transforming learning to remove rigid silos and enable students to gain diverse experiences to be agile for future multidisciplinary challenges.
