Funded Activity Summary

The Impact of Risk Management on Higher Degree Research Policy and Pedagogy in Australian Universities. In the context of heightened concerns about the outcomes of Higher Degree Research (HDR) programs in Australia, this project seeks to make a systematic inquiry into the ways that higher degree policy and pedagogy are impacted by the recent focus on risk management as an organisational imperative in universities. It will do so by investigating whether and how the social, cultural and institutional processes related to the management of risk are changing HDR policy and pedagogy in science- and social science-related departments within four Australian universities - a Group of Eight, an ATN, a 'dual mode/regional and a Private university.
