Abstract

Universities, particularly those with a strong research orientation, are being challenged by new circumstances. These include the information technology revolution and the ever greater complexity of societal and scientific problems. As a result, society is making novel demands on universities. In response, they lower their external walls so that they can collaborate with industry and governement. The effects on education, research and regional economic growth deserve investigation. So do their effects on universities upholding their academic values once they have escaped the ivory tower. In order to effectively address the multifaceted challenges of tomorrow, universities must also lower their internal walls and stimulate close collaboration between disciplines in a variety of ways. This book examines the new world facing universities and offers a series of recommendations on how to meet the challenges.
