The point of departure is a view of changing academic realities, through which the identity as a technical university is challenged and reconstituted. More specifically, the book connects the development of technical universities to changes in the structure and dimensioning of national higher education systems, to changes in the disciplinary basis of academic research and to changes in the governance of higher education institutions. Introduced in the age of industrialization, polytechnical schools rose to prominence in many national settings during the second half of the 19th century. Over time, new technologies have been developed and incorporated into the repertoire, and waves of academisation have swept over the former polytechnics, transforming them into technical universities. Their traditions and brands, however, prevail. Several technical universities are included among the most prestigious academic institutions of their nations and the training of engineers and engineering research still enjoys a high level of prestige and national priority, e.g. in the context of innovation and industrial policy. But the world keeps changing, and the higher education sector with it. Will technical universities have an equally attractive position within university systems in the decades to come? . 410 0$aHigher Education Dynamics ;$v56 606 $aHigher education 606 $aEducation?History 606 $aInternational education  606 $aComparative education 606 $aSchool management and organization 606 $aSchool administration 610 $aHigher Education 610 $aHistory of Education 610 $aInternational and Comparative Education 610 $aAdministration, Organization and Leadership 610 $aOrganization and Leadership 610 $ahistorical perspective of technical universities 610 $apolytechnical universities 610 $aexternal pressure at technical universities 610 $auniversity governance regimes 610 $aengineering academisation 610 $aprofessional values in engineering education 610 $aidentity formation at technical universities 610 $auniversity-industry interaction 610 $auniversity merger process 610 $adouble degree programmes in engineering and education 610 $aOpen Access 610 $aHigher & further education, tertiary education 610 $aHistory of education 610 $aEducation 610 $aEducational administration & organization 615 0$aHigher education. 615 0$aEducation?History. 615 0$aInternational education . 615 0$aComparative education. 615 0$aSchool management and organization. 615 0$aSchool administration. 676 $a507.1142733 700 $aGeschwind$b Lars$4edt$01076149 702 $aGeschwind$b Lars 702 $aBroström$b Anders 702 $aLarsen$b Katarina 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910416096903321 996 $aTechnical universities$93389899 997 $aUNINA
