During a recent business trip to Germany, I had the opportunity to visit several leading academic institutions, including the University of Braunschweig, HafenCity University Hamburg, the Technical University of Berlin, and Bauhaus University Weimar. These visits offered valuable insights into the advanced educational infrastructure and innovative academic environments present in Germany.

While there is still significant progress to be made in establishing a comparable educational infrastructure in our context, the examples I observed underscore the importance of setting ambitious yet attainable goals. Investing in the development of such institutions is not only desirable but essential for fostering innovation, academic excellence, and long-term societal advancement.
