Building a Research University: A Guide to Establishing Research in New Universities by Peter J Heard

Building a Research University: A Guide to Establishing Research in New Universities is a guide for university leaders who aim to manage the switch from being a teaching institution to one that is research-led. Drawing on the author’s own experience leading two different universities, the book covers the importance of research in a modern university, and examines the right balance between teaching and research and the strategies to go through phases of growth and development.
