Young Leaders Program Inventing the Future 15 January – 02 February 2019, Sydney, Australia The University of Sydney We are Australia’s first university, with a history of leading new thinking and welcoming people from all social and cultural backgrounds for more than 160 years. We offer the widest range of academic programs of any university in Australia and we are a member of the Group of Eight network of leading Australian research universities. Our main campus is also recognised as one of the most beautiful in the world. Since our inception, we have believed in education for all and leadership that makes lives better. Our alumni have inspired, led, entertained, challenged and improved the world around them. We have produced six prime ministers, two Nobel Laureates, three astronauts, 110 Rhodes scholars, one Pulitzer Prize winner and 145 Olympic athletes. Young Leaders Program: Inventing the Future Inventing the Future (ItF) is an interdisciplinary short course, jointly run by the faculties of Science, Engineering and Information Technologies, Business, and the School of Architecture, Design and Planning at the University of Sydney. The course is aimed at high achieving postgraduate and undergraduate students, to provide them with advanced skills in research translation, design and innovation. CRICOS 00026A The students will work in teams assigned by the teaching staff and will need to complete a pre-work task (a short report) prior to their arrival in Sydney. Each team will include members with diverse technical, design and business skills. It encourages students to be highly creative, work in teams, and look beyond their own disciplines to develop solutions that are genuinely novel. The students will also have the opportunity to work with University of Sydney student mentors. ItF encourages a future-focused approach to innovation, in which problems are addressed from multiple perspectives at once. We ask students to consider these problems in the context of the future. What are the technology, social, environmental and political trends, and what will the future look like in 10 or 15 years? We will leave some room for interpretation in the product briefs, so that students can be creative in choosing the solution with the most impact. Student teams will be given a real product brief on Rapid DNA sequencing, trust or air quality, of social and economic importance, aligned with areas of university research. They must respond to this brief, producing a working prototype product, business case, and presenting to the expert panel at the end of the program. Program duration 15 January to 02 February 2019     15 January 16 January 01 February 02 February arrive in Sydney program starts program ends depart from Sydney Participants The Program is open to students from the University of Sydney’s partner universities.

Project Briefs • Rapid DNA sequencing Fourth Generation of DNA sequencers are small, and quite cheap. The Oxford Nanopore system can fit in your pocket, only costs ~ US$1000 and can be used for real time sequencing. It’s been used for applications from forensics to agriculture to metagenomics. Students in this team will be supplied with a minION sequencer, and will have to develop a viable product idea based on it. • Trust Changes to our society and business have made trust more central than ever. Trust underpins, or perhaps undermines the sharing economy. It’s also key in new technologies that rely on data: the news, authentication, the use of data and privacy. Some of these aspects of trust have technical solutions (eg blockchain, or techniques of authentication,) while others may relate strongly to psychological or social factors, such as mechanisms to encourage better social integration or rates of vaccination. Students in this team will have to identify a problem where lack of trust is having a critical impact, and propose a solution. • Air quality Poor air quality is one of the leading causes of death in the world, resulting in more than 4 million deaths each year. Greenhouse gas emission into the is central to climate change. These are some of the most critical global problems of our time. Students on this team will identify an aspect of this huge problem where they can have impact. Approaches could include monitoring, filtering, improved chemical processing, or facilitating environmental behavioural changes. CRICOS 00026A
