Universities in Asia are faced with the twin challenges of maintaining an Asian identity, while at the same time cultivating global awareness among graduates, and it is not always clear what these notions of 'Asian' versus 'global' may mean. The need to shape students' mindset toward a 'global' perspective becomes all the more pertinent at the tertiary level as undergraduates take the next step into the global community upon graduation. This is in addition to the issues and challenges related to how educators can prepare students toward adopting a global mindset. This forum welcomes your deliberations on these and related issues on the topic of “Asian education hubs with a global perspective/s”.

Teaching and research are the primary intellectual activities of a university academic and doing well in both of them is perhaps desirable and important. The “tension” (real or perceived) between these two activities, particularly in research intensive universities, may prompt the questions “How does one balance teaching and research?”, “How does one excel in both teaching and research?”
