The inaugural conference of the All Ireland Society of
Higher Education will explore the current state of
higher education in the island of Ireland. This will entail an
investigation of some major forces affecting the development of
the sector including:
- Principal perspectives - government, economy, international
bodies
- Stakeholders - state bodies, academic community, industry,
schools, parents, students
- Issues - Scholarship, diversity, accountability, the
OECD Review
of Higher Education in the Republic, NQAI, Bologna
- The mission of higher education
- The challenges facing higher education in these
islands
- The impact of the UK
Higher Education Academy
- Learning, teaching and assessment strategies
The overall aim of the conference then is to present in a
succinct fashion a snapshot of higher education in Ireland, North
and South, as it enters a new and critical phase of national and
international development.
