CALL FOR PAPERS AND
CONFERENCE REGISTRATION
What
is Higher Education for? Shared and contested ambitions
Celtic
Manor, Newport in South Wales, United Kingdom
Dear
Colleagues,
The Society warmly
invites contributions for its Annual Research Conference 2012.
Call for Papers
available to download now at this link:
The Conference
welcomes papers relating to further, higher, undergraduate, postgraduate and
professional education in a wide range of research domains.
The Society’s Annual
Conference is a truly international event bringing together delegates and
contributors from over 40 countries. We hope researchers and scholars from the
many forms of higher education globally and in the UK will contribute to this
Conference, stimulating international debate on the way in which higher
education is responding to economic, social and political and cultural pressures
and both re-defining and re-asserting its nature and purpose. As higher
education researchers, we aim to provide significant, meaningful research
insights and knowledge to inform and guide universities, governments and
societies.
This year’s
conference will examine many perspectives on the role and value of higher
education and explore ways in which research into higher education can support
and strengthen shared ambitions and illuminate contested ones by taking a broad
and multi-faceted view of the nature and purposes of higher
education.
The SRHE Annual
Conference provides a major platform for the presentation and sharing of
research in every aspect of higher education and is a highly participative
event, offering a range of plenaries and smaller discussion groups and
seminars.
You are invited to
contribute to this debate in a variety of ways: by presenting a paper, sharing
in a symposium, including work of a conceptual or theoretical nature, or
organising a round table on any aspect of this year’s theme or your own research
interests. Empirical and scholarly research from a wide range of perspectives is
welcome. Registrations from delegates not presenting work this year are warmly
welcomed.
The deadline for
submission of proposals is Friday 29 June 2012
This timetable will
enable all submitting authors to receive early notification of papers accepted
and take full advantage of early booking discounts.
We look forward once
again to receiving your proposals and to another very successful conference at
the Celtic Manor Resort in Newport, Wales, UK and I encourage you to submit your
work and register for the conference as soon as possible.
Registration by 30 September 2012 will guarantee accommodation at the world
famous Celtic Manor resort (rather than adjacent hotels) and attracts important
early registration discounts.
You will find all
the information you need on making a submission on the Conference website
Conference
registration is now open.
If you have any
additional enquiries or any difficulty accessing the Call for papers please
email the Society at srheconferenceteam@srhe.ac.uk
We hope that you
will contribute a paper and participate in this conference and look forward to
seeing you in December 2012.
SRHE
Newer Researchers' Conference 11 December 2012
The SRHE Newer
Researchers' Conference on the same theme will take place at the Celtic Manor
one day in advance of the Annual Research Conference.
This is an excellent
event for postgraduate students and newer researchers, providing the opportunity
to present research work in a nurturing environment and participate in a number
of seminars and discussions. The Call for Papers for this Conference will be
issued shortly and the timetable for submissions and registration are later for
this smaller conference.
The SRHE Annual
Conference is the largest UK based higher education research conference. Do
please help us continue to extend the reach of this conference by forwarding

regards
