REHES IV Workshop - Higher Education and its Organizations
Institute of Communication and Public Policy
Start date: 6 October 2022
End date: 7 October 2022
USI, West Campus, Red Building - Via Buffi 13, Lugano, Switzerland
Higher education is currently facing various challenges affecting different levels from student and academic staff (micro), higher education institutions (meso) to the whole higher education system (macro). Higher education research can contribute to advance our understanding and ultimately address these challenges, notably thanks to its multidisciplinary character. Sharing knowledge across disciplines and levels of analysis at the Swiss level is what motivated the initiative “Research on Higher Education and Science in Switzerland” (REHES).
The Institute of Communication and Public Policy of the Università della Svizzera italiana (USI) is proud to host REHES IV in Lugano, continuing the successful series initiated in 2019 with REHES I organised by CHESS in Bern, REHES II organised online by our colleagues from the University of Lausanne in 2020, and REHES III organised by the higher education development unit of the Zurich University of Applied Sciences in Winterthur.
This workshop brings together researchers based in Switzerland and other European countries working on higher education topics within any discipline, e.g., sociology, political sciences, pedagogy, education sciences, to discuss the wide variety of aspects related to higher education from the individual to the organizational and system levels.
