ABSTRACT DBI-9617134 Harris This award provides support for a small workshop to consider the implications of changes underway in institutions of higher learning of all types, especially as they have implications for research and education in the biological sciences. These changes reflect changes in the relationship of government and academic institutions and, in turn, changes in the perceptions of the institutions and their faculty as they view of their own roles in society. Although such change is normal and healthy, increasingly the impetus for change comes from lack of growth in support for faculty research by Federal agencies, increased emphasis on teaching by the largest institutions, and changing patterns of employment among graduates. The effects of these changes on institutional policy and practice, and their implications for Federal agencies that fund research and education in the biological sciences will be explored.

摘要 DBI-9617134 Harris 该奖项为一个小型研讨会提供支持，以考虑所有类型的高等教育机构正在发生的变化的影响，特别是它们对生物科学研究和教育的影响。 这些变化反映了政府和学术机构关系的变化，进而反映了机构及其教员对自身社会角色看法的变化。 尽管这种变化是正常和健康的，但变化的动力越来越多地来自于联邦机构对教师研究支持的缺乏、最大机构对教学的日益重视以及毕业生就业模式的变化。 将探讨这些变化对机构政策和实践的影响，及其对资助生物科学研究和教育的联邦机构的影响。
