Pursey Heugens, professor and Dean of Research of the Rotterdam School of Management, has been mentioned in an article. The article discusses the role of academics, researchers and PhD candidates at Rotterdam School of Management, Erasmus University in making business research into a force for positive change on World Science Day for Peace and Development on Sunday 10 November. Pursey Heugens states that "World-class research is the backbone of all our educational programmes; such research plays a significant role in widening the scientific debate and in finding ways for business to be part of positive change. RSM’s primary focus is on developing business leaders with international careers who can become a force for positive change by carrying their innovative mindset into a sustainable future. I see that as an important part of the UN’s aim for peace and development. RSM has 10 centres of expertise representing mechanisms for research innovation, impact, knowledge exchange and dissemination by connecting academia with practice.”
