18. University Role in Building Global Graduate Capabilities
Universities, as is required, are responding to the need of creating global graduates by exploring further avenues through which they can create more opportunities for students to develop in global settings. One such method of doing so is through:
Establishing an overseas campus so students may study internationally as part of their degree, or
In building study abroad or internship programs into degree courses either as an additional or an accredited option.

20. University Role in Building Global Graduate Capabilities
Universities that are working on - and promoting the benefits of - initiatives such as these should be commended as they are helping to spearhead the drive in producing global graduates for the future.

21. Building Global Graduate Capabilities
It is imperative that we encourage, throughout all levels of education, an appreciation of other cultures and fuel an intellectual curiosity that will translate into producing global citizens amongst our younger generations.
Failure to do so will force global business to cherry-pick global graduates from an alternative talent pool.

22. Building Global Graduate Capabilities
Opportunities such as the Erasmus Exchange Programme and international internships must not be missed, and should be actively encouraged and promoted to students at all levels.
The benefits to personal and professional development of international experiences should not be underestimated.
