Global Leadership Forum for Construction Engineering and Management 2022
22-23 June 2022, Western Sydney University,
Sydney, New South Wales, Australia
The Global Leadership Forum for Construction Engineering and Management Programs (GLF-CEM) is intended to bring together professors from leading universities around the world who play a leadership and/or administrator role in their respective programs. The objective of this forum is to establish a body of academic leadership in Construction Engineering and Management to discuss and share issues of common concern in Research, Teaching, Academic Administration, and Opportunities for Collaboration.
This two-day conference will include keynote speakers as well as panel sessions with global leaders.
The next Global Leadership Forum for Construction Engineering and Management Programs (GLF-CEM) will be held from Wednesday, June 22 through to Thursday June 23, 2022 in hybrid mode in light of the current ongoing global pandemic. GLF advances construction engineering and management programs by sharing program information, trends, and other timely issues around the world.
This year’s theme is “Creating sustained societal impact through construction engineering management.”
The role of Construction Engineering Management in ensuring a sustainable future has never been greater. In addition to the excellent research advances across the globe, which are creating new trends and benchmarks for future activity, there are other significant elements that play an important role. For example, attracting and retaining the best talent in our sector is critical. Ensuring the mentoring and coaching of young and new academics will ensure sustained academic excellence. The collaboration between academia, industry, government and other organisations is necessary to address global challenges. Addressing the lack of diversity in our sector has always been our Achilles’ heel. The conference will address how Construction Engineering Management can play an important role in creating sustained societal impact through addressing the aforementioned issues. Global academic and industrial leaders will discuss, debate and participate in this collaborative conference to come up with new and fresh ideas on how we should be moving forward.
