University Research Management Developing Research in New Institutions: Developing Research in New Institutions

Front Cover
OECD Publishing, 2005 M09 27 - 214 pages

Given the increasing competitiveness and greater geo-political significance of higher education and research, and the under-developed profile of many new Higher Education Institutions (HEIs), this study seeks to examine the processes and strategies being devised by new HEIs to grow research. By focusing on new HEIs, this book provides a unique profile of the experiences of a group of institutions that has hitherto been unidentified and unexplored. It analyses results drawn from an in-depth study of twenty-five HEIs from across sixteen countries: Australia, Belgium, Canada, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Greece, Hong Kong China, Hungary, Ireland, Japan, New Zealand, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom.

You have to develop entrepreneurial leadership to go along with institutional autonomy (as quoted in Clark 1995, p.168). References Atwell, RH (1994) Tutting our house in...
