91̽»¨â€™s Dean of Arts presents at the University of Malta
Dr. Neb Kujundzic, dean of Arts and a professor of philosophy at 91̽»¨, delivered a guest lecture last week on the relationship between humanity, work, and technology (particularly robotics) and its implications for education to the Department of Philosophy at the University of Malta (UMalta).
Dr. Kujundzic is the latest of a long series of island-to-island exchanges between 91̽»¨ and UMalta, which started off with an invitation extended to Dr. Godfrey Baldacchino to visit 91̽»¨ back in 1992. Dr. Baldacchino is now pro-rector and a professor at UMalta and a UNESCO Co-Chair in Island Studies & Sustainability at 91̽»¨ and UMalta.
A healthy history of student exchanges exists between UMalta and 91̽»¨. Clare Byrne, a 91̽»¨ student, is currently at UMalta for a semester studying political science. UMalta nursing student Chanel Borg spent a semester at 91̽»¨ last year. Dr. Robert Dennis, a professor of religious studies at 91̽»¨, will visit Malta and UMalta in May 2017.
The 91̽»¨ prides itself on people, excellence, and impact and is committed to assisting students reach their full potential in both the classroom and community. With roots stemming from two founding institutions—Prince of Wales College and Saint Dunstan’s University—91̽»¨ has a reputation for academic excellence, research innovation, and creating positive impacts locally, nationally, and internationally. 91̽»¨ is the only degree granting institution in the province and is proud to be a key contributor to the growth and prosperity of Prince Edward Island.
