In particular, Professor Andrew Griffiths is not only an excellent leader but also a member of the HSB Scientific and Training Council for more than a decade. HSB deeply appreciates and is grateful for his persistent contributions and dedicated support, especially during the most difficult times of the school.

Over the past 13 years, the cooperation between HSB and UQ Bel has made important contributions to the development and improvement of the quality of training programs, pioneering in the recognition and transfer of international credits, and connecting the community of scientists from both sides. In addition to training, the two sides continue to promote scientific research cooperation in the fields of Integrated Business Administration and Non-Traditional Security Management, Water Resources Security, Environmental Security, Cyber Security, Economic Security...

The University of Queensland is one of the world's leading universities, ranked in the Top 42 globally in the QS World University Rankings, a member of the Group of Eight (G8) - the group of 8 leading research universities in Australia. HSB's establishment and maintenance of sustainable cooperation with a prestigious partner like UQ is a clear demonstration of HSB's internationalization vision and training quality.

In the future, HSB and UQ will continue to accompany each other, not only in cooperation but also in competing in higher education and global innovation, contributing to creating sustainable values for education and society.
