Description
Although a close relationship between research and teaching is perceived in general to be beneficial to the student learning experience, previous research has shown that cultivating this relationship is in reality problematic.
The integration of research and teaching within an institution's strategic planning processes and support mechanisms requires careful management and needs to be actively encouraged, supported and facilitated in a systematic way if it is to be sustainable in the mid to long term. Building on this premise and an awareness that understanding of the research-teaching nexus may differ from discipline to discipline, this research project aims to identify and evaluate the existing and potential relationships between research and teaching at the departmental level in Science and Engineering Departments in a research intensive University.
