Abstract

Universities support the development of students'capacities to harness, create and produce knowledge in any context of life, respecting individual interests and previous learning experiences. Diversity on all levels, communicating with business and research institutes, and integrating into the global issues around the world can be tackled from different angles with different qualifications. It is important for students to be educated, open-mindedand preoccupied with adapting to team, environment, requirements, and evolution. Integration and the ability to adapt are requirements that must concern any university regardless of the subjects taught.
