🎥 Aston Villa cult hero signs OTD in 2004 😍
Martin Laursen arrived at Aston Villa in 2004 with an impressive list of honours. The tough-tackling Danish centre-back joined the Villans after a successful spell in Italy, where he won the Serie B title with Hellas Verona and lifted the Serie A title and Coppa Italia with Milan. Although Laursen took time to find his feet in the Premier League due to a spell of injuries and patchy form, he soon developed into a cult hero with the Midlands club. During a five-year spell, the former Denmark international made 91 appearances and captained the club throughout the 2008/09 season. 🎥 Martin Laursen ❤️️#Laursen40 #PartOfThePride #AVFC — Aston Villa (@AVFCOfficial) July 26, 2017 What is your favourite Laursen moment with Villa? 📸 Laurence Griffiths - 2005 Getty Images

At SIEC, AUS Chancellor stresses AI's role in future education
A collaborative platform for AI dialogue Dr. Laursen described the event as a co-organized initiative by AUS and the University of Sharjah, aimed at fostering dynamic knowledge exchange. The second day of the conference featured keynote presentations and academic papers exploring how AI intersects with higher education. Preparing students for the AI-driven workplace Dr Laursen stressed the importance of integrating AI into curricula and teaching methods to ensure students are job-ready. He told CNN, 'If we want our graduates to be job-ready, they must be familiar with modern tools — and, more importantly, the innovative ways to use them.' AI beyond STEM: A cross-disciplinary imperative While AI naturally aligns with engineering and data science, Dr. Laursen highlighted its growing relevance in business analytics, social sciences, and urban planning. 'This is not just a technological shift — it's a broad educational imperative,' he noted, underlining the need for AI literacy across all academic disciplines. Global collaboration and knowledge sharing The conference also provided a valuable platform for academic leaders and researchers from both local and international institutions to share best practices and explore collaborative strategies for integrating AI into teaching and learning.
