The project involves researchers from the UK, Sweden, Finland, Spain, Poland, Russia, Moldova and IIEP (the International Institute for Educational Planning, a UNESCO agency).
Key Issues
The project will address the following key issues: -
1. What role does the “European university” play in knowledge production and transfer?
2. What changes, within the institution and nationally, are needed to improve its effectiveness in these respects?
3. Are there good models from which other European universities might learn? Are there problems in transferring these methods?
