Close to 62 per cent of research projects were published in top-tier journals that are ranked within the world’s top 25 per cent globally by Journal Impact FactorTM. According to Clarivate, this meant that Singapore’s research is mostly published in journals that global scholars recognise as impactful. • Released on 18 Nov, the HCR lists the world's most influential researchers who are ranked in the top 1 per cent in their field by citations and year, over the last decade. It includes 26 Nobel laureates, including physicist Professor Sir Konstantin Novoselov, who is the second Nobel-prize winner (Dr Sydney Brenner being the first) to conduct significant research work in Singapore. • Singapore’s strong showing affirms the outcomes of sustained investments in academic research over the years. The investments have enabled local Institutes of Higher Learning and Research Institutions to build a strong base of scientific capabilities, and establish a strong, internationally recognised research talent base. • A total of six local institutions were highlighted in the HCR list: o Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU) o National University of Singapore (NUS) o Agency for Science Technology & Research (A*STAR) o Singapore Management University (SMU) o Singapore University of Technology & Design (SUTD) o Ngee Ann Polytechnic (NP) • The National Research Foundation (NRF) supports Singapore’s pursuit of scientific excellence through various schemes, which aim to sustain a broad base of capabilities, nurture bright talents and attract top scientific minds to Singapore.

  • Relying on Agile Management to Develop an International Exchange and Dual Degree Program and Navigate the COVID-19 Pandemic
    International Research and Review, Journal of Phi Beta Delta Honor Society Volume 9, Number 2, Spring 2020 for International Scholars Relying on Agile Management to Develop an International Exchange and Dual Degree Program and Navigate the COVID-19 Pandemic Weiwen Liao, PhD, Elizabeth Prejean, DBA, Carmella Parker, Esq./MBA Northwestern State University, Louisiana Abstract This article identifies the value and practices of agile management in business and higher education and provides a possible agile management framework for universities to utilize while trying to navigate developing international exchange and dual degree program opportunities during the COVID-19 pandemic. The framework relies upon agile management practices gleaned and shaped at a school of business of a regional university and modifies the process to fit these turbulent times. The article provides an example of a four-step agile process in this School of Business which followed “the Law of the Customer,” “the Law of the Small Team,” and “the Law of the Network” to develop an international exchange and dual degree program. Additionally, the article reviews the students’ feedback to measure the program’s impact on their education, life, or cultural experiences. This agile process can be implemented by other universities to develop their international education programs, especially in light of the global health crisis that is gripping the world at this moment. Keywords: COVID-19; agile management; international education; exchange program; dual degree program COVID-19 and its Impact on International Education As coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) marches across the globe, every industry has been impacted in some significant and tangible way.
