    Liberal arts in Asian higher education

    23–24 JUNE 2022

    Hosted in partnership with Lingnan University, this virtual event explored the advantages of a liberal arts approach within Asian higher education as a whole. We addressed diversity, student outcomes and impact within the context of the SDGs.

    The term “liberal arts” traditionally conjures images of leafy, Western institutions offering small classes and flexible learning, with a focus on the arts, humanities and natural sciences. But...

    • What are the benefits of embedding liberal arts within higher education in Asia, the world's largest continent and a rising power, particularly in STEM subjects?
    • How important are the liberal arts for Asia's future economic and social development in the face of global challenges?
    • How can Asian higher education foster critical thinking and creativity through this model?

    Discussion points

    • How a liberal arts education can give graduates a competitive edge in Asia’s job market today
    • The role of liberal arts in cultivating a more culturally diverse and inclusive cohort
    • How interdisciplinary learning can provide a flexible and engaging experience for students
    • How liberal arts are conducive to realising a more equitable vision of digital pedagogy across the continent
    • Advancing the SDGs through a liberal arts lens
