Funded Activity Summary

SOCIAL WORK IN THE ENTERPRISE UNIVERSITY: A COMPARATIVE SURVEY OF AUSTRALIAN SOCIAL WORK EDUCATORS 1982 TO 2004. In an era when the nature of welfare practice and higher education are being radically transformed in a globalizing marketplace, the socio-demographic characteristics, education, research productivity and international linkages of Australian social work academics are of critical importance. This research proposes a national survey of current Australian social work educators in 2004, the results of which will be compared with a baseline survey carried out in 1982, and with other contemporary studies of Australian academics. Fifty in-depth interviews with a stratified sample of respondents will then explore key themes in the changing political eocnomy of the professions in their adaptation to the shifting higher education and community service environment.
