Professor Kylie Readman as DVC Education and Students at University of Technology Sydney outlines a new venture in global online education. Launching new Mandarin-language online postgraduate education courses to global student markets as a trans-national education strategy is a bold and unique step for an Australian university. In a partnership with Cinlearn, this is distinct and differentiated from the multiple bricks and mortar TNE ventures by Australian and other universities in various Asian and other global countries. It is an example of a university working on adjacencies that go beyond core operations to seek breakthroughs.
