Where: Attic Soiron Building
In this colloquium, we will discuss the agenda of Science in Transition. Science in Transition proponents try to open a debate about the future of Dutch universities. They are for example concerned about the “publish or perish” culture, the way scientific output is assessed, the position of temporary employees at universities and the relations between science and industry.
Frank Huisman, one of the initiators of Science in Transition, will give a kick-off for the debate. René Gabriёls, Rein de Wilde and Sally Wyatt will respond to the ideas of Science in Transition. Then the floor will be opened for a discussion with the audience.
