The future of science lies in the nurturing of confident multi-disciplinary scientists who can tackle the present challenges and emerging frontiers of science. Scientific innovations generate the requisite skills and knowledge needed to industrialize the local economy. Green and urban mining practices will also play a key role in the future in order to alleviate the depletion of natural resources. In this regard, my vision and thrust is to champion the development of frontiers of science to develop advanced manufacturing capabilities in the metals extraction and manufacturing industries in order to alleviate the heavy reliance on natural resources through the deployment of cost-competitive but environmentally friendly processes and products. In the long run, I envisage science playing a critical role in solving complex societal and business problems through the reduction to practice of locally developed innovative solutions.
