In 2002, the network has been extended to include researchers from the Facultés universitaires Saint-Louis, the Facultés universitaires catholiques de Mons, the Universiteit Antwerpen, and the Université des sciences sociales de Toulouse. It builds on network members' academic expertise in microeconomics, strategic management, and the economics of education, as well as on their practical academic management expertise. A previous book in this series, published in 2001, has provided a sample of research outputs from the project, with special emphasis on the strategic management of universities. This second book addresses more specifically the challenges universities face in the emerging "European university market". It first presents the viewpoints of the European Commissioner for Research, Philippe Busquin, and from the academic authorities of the Université libre de Bruxelles, Robert Tollet and Pierre de Maret. It then includes several contributions from well-known international academics focusing on both the United States and various European countries. The challenges coming from increased mobility, demand for accountability and reduced public budgets, as well as their impact on students, researchers and teachers, are considered. The degree of convergence and of diversity across countries is stressed in terms of : (i) functioning of university systems, (ii) assessment of academic performances, (iii) response to student and societal needs, (iv) governance systems, and (v) teaching and research networking strategies. A contrasted picture is presented, with a variety of responses being experimented in reaction to the increased pressures higher mobility and reduced public budgets. A common theme is the attempt by universities to introduce elements of "managerialism"; in their governance while preserving their academic specificity. This requires the right combination of market incentives, public intervention and university autonomy. Achieving such an optimum is a difficult task. The contributions included in the book point to various successes and difficulties universities have experienced in this process. They should be of interest to all citizens interested in the management of Europe's key resource : the creation and diffusion of knowledge. They are of course especially relevant for all the participants in the higher education sector, be they students, researchers, teachers or policymakers. 03 A multiuniversity project was set up in 1997 - with researchers from the Université libre de Bruxelles, the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven and the Université de Mons-Hainaut (funded by the Belgian Federal Government under its PAI/IAP Programme) - to study various facets university behavior.

Understanding and improving their functioning is therefore vital for extending the "knowledge frontier". 04 01 https://www.editions-ulb.be/resources/titles/74530100650880/extras/1281.pdf 06 03 01 https://www.editions-ulb.be/resources/titles/74530100650880/images/01161aaa0b6d1345dd8fe4e481144d84/HIGHQ/9782800412818.jpg 20190712 07 03 01 https://www.editions-ulb.be/resources/titles/74530100650880/images/01161aaa0b6d1345dd8fe4e481144d84/THUMBNAIL/9782800412818.jpg 20190712 02 https://www.editions-ulb.be/en/book/?GCOI=74530100650880 Éditions de l'Université de Bruxelles 01 Éditions de l'Université de Bruxelles 04 20021022 01 94.49 in 02 62.99 in 03 15 in 08 15.20 oz 01 240 cm 02 160 cm 03 15 cm 08 431 gr 12 03 9782800414225 12 15 9782800414416 12 15 9782800412511
