Edited Volume "Transition and Transformation in Higher Education"

Contributions from the 4th Conference on Austrian Higher Education Research

Interdisciplinary research on education is important in many areas of education and business. Our group's research and teaching focuses on the individual, social and institutional factors that contribute to educational processes.

Consequently, we focus on the following topics:

  • Theory-based empirical research intended to help fulfill societal goals with regard to schools, universities, and professional training and continuing education

  • Teaching educational science knowledge/content for master's degree programs

  • Cooperating with scientific and educational organizations to improve the quality of teaching and to conduct joint practice-oriented research
