内容説明
The British system of higher education is often said to be highly selective and to emphasize high and uniform standards of academic quality. The American one, by contrast, is seen as remarkably accessible and consequentially diverse in its standards and provision. These basic differences are linked with other differences: in curriculum, in funding, in institutional governance, and popular affection. Nevertheless individual students and teachers move between the systems with apparent ease and the systems share an attractiveness to students from other countries and high reputations for research and scholarship. In this book a group of American and British observers and participants examine important aspects of higher education in the two countries, with quality and access as the continuing and connecting themes.
