. 5. INTRODUCTION.
. 6. Introduction. "To create the future, we will need a huge shift in thinking, values, and action." - Albert Einstein.
. 7. Introduction Cont’d. Early Days The first generation of universities produced graduates that were sought after by both local and foreign companies & Institutions (Obasanjo, 2012). In the 50s/60s the University of Ibadan was ranked among the top 50 universities in the world. Our founding fathers committed between 40% – 50% budget to Education..
. 8. Introduction Cont’d. Today’s education system is faced with: Inadequate Access, Poor Quality, and Unemployability. Also, there are other social vices like cultism, examination malpractice, indecent dressing, prostitution/marks for sex, etc. National consequences: corruption, moral decadence, kidnapping, herdsmen killings, Boko Haram insurgency, amongst others..
. Introduction Cont’d. 9. “The country is producing less leaders, managers, teachers and other professionals but mass-producing miscreants, the disaffected and the rejected, the misdirected, the unlearned, the angry, the wronged, the agitated and the hopeless” Ezekwesili (2006)..
. Introduction Cont’d. Global Developmental Strides: Generally, the world has witnessed several Industrial Revolutions (IR), ranging from the 1 st , 2 nd , 3 rd , to lately the 4 th , referred to as 4IR. Both Industrial Revolutions and Digital Revolutions (Disruptive Technologies) have changed the demands in the world of work. It has been reported that: The future of work won’t be about college degrees, it will be about job skills. Tech giants such as Apple, IBM and Google no longer require a degree, well-paying jobs are offered to those with non-traditional education or a high-school diploma..
. 11. THE PERSPECTIVES OF PRIVATE UNIVERSITIES.

. 13. Even in Nigeria, the trend is same. Covenant, Babcock, Redeemers, Bowen, ABUAD, Landmark, etc. The intervention of private universities was a call to duty to address the decay in the higher education context, particularly with regard to: moral decadence unstable academic calendar poor infrastructure inadequate qualified faculty lack of entrepreneurial education low in global competitiveness (Quality, IT education, Self employment, etc )..
. 14. Quality: Private Universities maintain a stable and unbroken Academic Calendar. Private Universities enforce strict adherence to Lecture Time-table. Private Universities maintain reasonable percentage attendance from students to write examinations. Private Universities introduced Entrepreneurial Education in Nigeria. Most Private Universities are better equipped in terms of infrastructure. Private Universities are far ahead of the public in terms of IT adoption and implementation in Learning (electronic/online Learning). Regardless of the number of Professors, if you are always on strike (Public), it’s worst for the students - Learning does not happen through osmosis..
. 15. Morals: Private Universities: introduced dress code into the system; have zero tolerance for Cultism and Exam malpractice; have zero tolerance for indiscipline and any act of insubordination; introduced specialized programmes to give their graduates the competitive edge needed in the world of work; provide decent accommodation and learning environment that engender decent lifestyle and leadership development; and provide a line of communication with parents and timely release of results to prevent having ‘Professional Students’ on Campus..
. 16. FUTURE-READY UNIVERSITIES & STUDENTS.
. Future-Ready Universities & Students. The disruptions by the 4IR demand that: Universities engage collaborative learning as a strategy of Teach Less, Learn More (TLLM) methodology. Future conscious HEIs understand the importance to redesign curriculum, content, and assessments to prepare graduates for employment and self-reliance. Universities adopt problem-based learning (PBL) as a basis for TLLM methodology..
. Future-Ready Universities & Students Cont’d. Universities shift focus from: Teaching to learning and redirecting the focus of assessment from knowledge base to skills base. Knowledge accumulation to equipping graduates with the needs of industry, particularly the 4IR and beyond. Graduates exhibit competencies beyond discipline-specific knowledge. Graduates thrive in a complex world filled with rapid advancements in knowledge and technology. Graduates must possess lifelong learning skills, think critically and creatively, be socially intelligent, resilient, and adaptive..
. Future-Ready Universities & Students Cont’d. 19.
. Future-Ready Universities & Students Cont’d. Future Ready students are: On time everyday for work/school – and dressed appropriately . Motivated to finish each task and learn from helpful criticism. Prepared to follow the rules of the workplace/school, including policies on ethics, culture and safety. Able to work well in teams and to listen, speak confidently and communicate with co-workers in writing..
. Future-Ready Universities & Students Cont’d. Future Ready students are: Able to think critically and creatively to tackle big assignments. Motivated to learn, curious enough to explore ideas on their own, and bold enough to ask for help when needed. Able to analyze situations, form opinions, and decide how to move forward..
. DISRUPTIVE TECHNOLOGIES. 22.
. Disruptive Technologies. 23. DT refers to: A disruptive technology sweeps away the systems or habits, it replaces because it has attributes that are recognizably superior. -- TIM SMITH A technology that has the capability to alter our lifestyle, work, business and global economy. If we lost out in the 1 st , 2 nd , 3 rd IRs we cannot afford to lose out on the 4IR ..
. Disruptive Technologies Cont’d. 24. Just as the IR transformed society, culture, politics, and individual consciousness, DT is changing much about 21 st Century. This evolving concept is centered on what is called the “combinatorial effects” of the new internet-based technologies such as: M obile Computing, Cloud, Artificial I ntelligence, Sensors, and Big D ata A nalytics amongst others, which are beginning to dramatically alter today’s industries (Keen, 2018)..
