Our intention is to have strong representation and discussion on the research management and support issues faced by European research and higher education institutions operating in the current environment. The forthcoming 7th Framework Programme and its objectives will feature prominently. The issues that are of particular interest are:
- Research management and support within institutions (strategic planning, internal structures and governance)
- Sources of research funding and associated issues
- Making international research links last longer
- Practical ways to help structure international research collaborations and what this means for research managers and their roles
The European Commissioner for Science and Research, Janez Potocnik, will open our Conference with a pre-recorded message, to be followed by keynote speeches from the head of the OECD Institutional Management in Higher Education Programme and from DG Research.
