In the 21st century global knowledge economy, research based universities occupy prime position, and have multiple roles to play beyond teaching, learning and supporting the academic achievements of students. Offering an international perspective, this book demonstrates how these emerging trends are being viewed across different countries with a broad range of completely diverse socio-cultural backgrounds.
The authors explore the contribution of universities towards the advancement of global science and scholarship in countries like Turkey, Kosovo, Latin America and US. Delving into new information and processes across these countries, they investigate how the future of academic research is changing, evolving, and ultimately contributing towards emerging trends which are significant in shaping the academic and societal roles played by universities, and in understanding the human condition. It is by engaging in this research that the authors demonstrate to readers how culture, technology and society interact within and beyond the academic space, and are rooted in the foundation of intellectual and scientific trends.
'Faculty in higher education often struggle to balance research and teaching. Documenting various approaches from supporting faculty and team development to consideration of teaching as research, this book will be of interest to administrators and faculty seeking to develop synergies between teaching and research that benefit students, faculty, and institutions.' -- Linden Higgins, Independent Consultant and Faculty in the College of Arts and Sciences, University of Vermont, USA
