Students in Changing Higher Education Landscapes
One-day conference
Friday, 14th June 2019
Across many countries of the world, higher
education landscapes have changed significantly over recent years. Market
mechanisms have become more prominent, and politicians have become increasingly
concerned about graduates’ transitions into the labour market. In some nations,
although not all, students are now expected to make a substantial contribution
to the cost of their higher education and, across mainland Europe, the Bologna Process
has reshaped the nature of students’ experiences considerably. This one-day
conference seeks to explore understandings of students in this shifting
context.
