The Three Cs Of Higher Education Competition Collaboration And Complementarity

The thirteen papers in this collection address three aspects of higher education primarily in Europe but also in the United States. These aspects are competition collaboration and complementarity both on the level of policy and on the practical level of impact on students and staff. Competition especially for funding occurs between and within institutions. Collaboration more than a basic code of conduct has become a political principle across Europe. Complementarity in the market for higher education facilitates this collaboration. The themes and contexts in higher education for which the three Cs are examined include missions and identities response to external forces the impact of evaluation systems and ranking schemes the effects of globalisation intercultural awareness and gender imbalance and the challenges of student participation. Statistical tables and visual aids support the analysis and arguments. This book is the fifth in a series of publications drawn from the annual Forums of the European Association of Institutional Research (EAIR) from 2013 onwards. |The Three Cs of Higher Education Competition Collaboration and Complementarity
