This book offers perspectives on how a range of methodological choices, theoretical approaches and conceptualisations from other disciplines can be successfully applied and utilised in the context of higher education. As a reader compiled of independent chapters, the book is particularly aimed at PhD students in the field of higher education administration. The book consists of three parts: I Methodological Approaches? examples for early career researchers; II Conceptual Approaches Utilised to Understanding University Transformation; and, III Scholarly Traditions Applied to Understand Universities and Academic Work. The first part highlights the importance of methods in research, and provides examples of academic dissertations with strong methodological groundings. In the second part, the authors provide theoretical and conceptual aids to analyse the transformation of higher education. The third part focuses on how traditional and well-established theoretical approaches can be applied to higher education settings in terms of, for example, research questions. 517 $aTheoretical and Methodological Perspectives on Higher Education Management and Transformation 606 $aEducation, Higher$xAdministration 615 0$aEducation, Higher$xAdministration. 676 $a378.101 702 $aPekkola$b Elias 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910476983403321 996 $aTheoretical and Methodological Perspectives on Higher Education Management and Transformation$92992949 997 $aUNINA
