> Accomplishing Complex Institutional Change: making a difference to
> students' experiences of higher education
>
> Conference Date: Monday 6 June 2005, De Montfort University,
> Leicester campus.
>
> A central purpose of higher education is to make a difference to
> students’ lives and there are many ways in which this can be achieved.
> However the world is constantly changing and the decisions we made a
> decade ago about how we make a difference to students’ lives are
> different to the ones we make today.
>
> Increasingly, higher education institutions engage in large scale
> complex change in order to enrich students’ higher education
> experiences, create new opportunities for them to learn and extend
> their capacities to learn and do new things. Such complex change
> involves a great deal of emotional, physical and intellectual energy.
>
> The conference, hosted by De Monfort University and the Higher
> Education Academy offers delegates the time and space to try to
> understand how we accomplish such change so that we might do it better
> in future. A choice of six to eight workshop/seminar sessions will add
> to a conference which is both thoughtful and practical. Submissions
> are invited by Friday 22 April from individuals or groups of
> practitioners with experience related to the themes of the conference
> interested in contributing through one of the six 60-minute
> workshop/seminar sessions. For further information visit the event
