The academic and professional workforce at UEH are more than just citizens; they are active global participants in the cause of sustainable development through art inspiration and social contribution. Upon implementing the new multidisciplinary university governance model, and in launching UEH College of Technology and Design, the University Board of Management have done their due diligence to ensure a high-quality group of young talents and working professionals. It is precisely here that each and every UEH member is constantly pushed beyond their limits in order to acquire new skills and knowledge, adapt to new technologies, and become trailblazers in the multidisciplinary approach and incorporation of technology and its technical knowledge in the harmonious and flexible use of economics and management best practices so as to exercise changes and breakthroughs that allow us to more quickly adapt to the present day.
