Bjørn Stensaker, Elisabeth Hovdhaugen and Peter Maassen have recently published a new article that examines the relationship between study programme delivery and quality management systems built on external accountability regimes. The article had specific focus on coordination and control of quality work. The empirical material for the article draws from the survey among study programme leaders carried out in this project.
The article is titled “The practices of quality management in Norwegian higher education: Collaboration and control in study programme design and delivery” and it was published in International Journal for Educational Management (Vol.33, 4).
