Abstract |
This
project comprises a series of seminars on current policy issues concerning
current policy issues in higher education. Each seminar is attended
by about 30 senior policy-makers, stakeholders and researchers, and
the series is intended to inform policy and practice in the United
Kingdom and beyond. The development of distinctive 'national' systems
within the UK, the establishment of a 'European Higher Education Area'
(the so-called Bologna process) and the impact of globalisation all
create a context in which such a review would be well-timed. |
