Das ipts in Sevilla, wo unser ZHAW Kollege Vicente Carabias derzeit arbeitet, möchte Ihre Einschätung als Forschende und Lehrende über die Zukunft der Hochschulen erfahren. Wir begrüssen es, wenn Sie an dieser Umfrage teilnehmen:
Dear Sir/Madam,
The Institute for Prospective Technological Studies (IPTS) of the European Commission Joint Research Centre (JRC) kindly requests your expert opinion on the present and future state of universities in Europe and beyond. As a researcher, your opinion on how universities will look in 2025 and how these institutions look today in terms of globalisation, mobility, third mission and financial management, is of paramount importance to support policy makers to address both current and future challenges building upon existing and newly identified opportunities.
The survey is directed towards research and teaching staff currently working, or who have previously worked, in universities or affiliated institutions with responsibilities for research and/or teaching activities (e.g. Teacher, Professor, Researcher). Responding to the full survey should take no more than 20 minutes, although it is possible to choose to answer only those questions related to either the current outlook or those looking towards 2025 by leaving some questions unanswered. In either such case, the completion of the survey would take only 10 minutes.
To access the researchers survey please follow this link.
The survey is open until Wednesday, the 25th August 2010.
Final results of this survey will be available in October 2010. If you wish to be informed of the results of the survey, you can leave your contact details before submitting your answers. Please visit the project’s website for more information on the overall process and project’s timeline.
This survey is also looking for the opinions of senior university managers with power and responsibility to make decisions to manage (organise and coordinate) the university as a whole or specific units or areas. We would therefore be very grateful if you could disseminate either this email (i.e. to researchers / teachers) or the website of the project within your university and network of associates.
We would like to thank you in advance for your attention and participation, and please do not hesitate to contact us (jrc-ipts-foresight@ec.europa.eu) for any information you may require.
Yours faithfully,
Dr. Mark Boden
