内容説明

This volume explores the impact of expansion, diversification and revised expectations on the university curriculum. It examines the dilemmas and opportunities faced by managers; the impact upon the expectations and quality of life of academics and support staff, students and other stakeholders; and makes practical proposals for the restoration and maintenance of the academic community. It draws upon the experience of institutional heads, teachers and union officials in addressing a key dilemma: how to recover and nurture a sense of common purpose between those who manage and those who deliver a curriculum, which is itself under social and economic pressure. "Managing the University Curriculum" is an authoritative analysis of the changing context, of the interests and concerns of stakeholders, and of how - practically - the curriculum can act as a source of renewal.
