The seminar on higher education research will be held on Friday 12 July at the Royal Society Lecture Theatre in Wellington, 9-5. There are two keynote speakers: Professor Simon Marginson of the University of Melbourne and Professor Michael Peters of the University of Waikato. Registration will open shortly on the NZARE website.

Principles of selection will be
(a) A focus on structure and policy
(b) research into wananga, universities, polytechnics, and PTEs
(c) papers that illuminate the current experience of participants, either teachers or learners, in higher education, and
(d) papers that elucidate ‘the state we’re in’, politically or comparatively.
We are also intending to run a session where researchers get a few minutes to outline their projects and make connections with others.
