8:00 AM -  9:30 AM
The Pyle Center, 702 Langdon Street
This event is free and open to the public.
Ivar Bleiklie
Professor

Professor Bleiklie will present an analysis of the ways in which ideas and ideals of university organization and governance have changed over the past few decades, moving away from a notion of the university as a republic of scholars towards the university as a stakeholder organization.

Bleiklie’s presentation will include a discussion of influential, supranational trends in university governance; an analysis of how change may be promoted or limited within universities; research findings about international variation in the level of change within university organizations; and an analysis of how change and variation may be understood in terms of higher education.


This presentation is part of the Ideas and Universities International Video Seminar Series and is made available on the UW–Madison campus thanks to funding and support from the UW-Madison Division of International Studies, the Institute for Advanced Studies at the University of Bristol (UK), the Worldwide Universities Network, WISCAPE, and UW–Madison's School of Education International Education Committee.

In-person attendance at the Pyle Center viewing site is strongly encouraged to ensure your opportunity to interact and discuss with other participants locally and internationally. However, for those unable to attend, WUN usually offers a live webcast of the event which can be accessed through the Ideas and Universities Seminar Series website.
