Apologies for cross posting.


The State of the Industry
the future for cultural research in the university
 
26th and 27th November 2009
The University of New South Wales, Kensington
 
The State of the Industry is a two day conference that will discuss the
future for cultural research in the university, while marking the conclusion
of a highly successful period of Australian Research Council funding for the
Cultural Research Network. The event will showcase a range of innovative
research collaborations and projects that the Cultural Research Network has
generated, linking different disciplines, institutions and community groups
working in the area of culture over the past 5 years. It will also discuss a
number of issues fundamental to the practice of research, including:
 
* teaching conditions in the university
* peer to peer models for learning and mentoring
* collaborations between rural, regional and city campuses, and
* new models for professional development and training
 
Led by the next generation of researchers entering the academy, the
conference will be a chance for the university and wider public to hear the
ideas and needs of those seeking to work in the industry over the long term.
All are welcome to attend and participate in a much needed discussion of the
future direction of higher education in this country.
 
Registration for the conference is free, and members of the university
sector, the media, and the general public are welcome.
