Knowledge transfer between science and higher education research and ministries of education and research
WiHoWiT - Knowledge transfer between science and higher education research and science ministries
Do the results of science and higher education research influence the work of science ministries and does this result in changes in the political design of the state higher education systems?
The WiHoWiT project sheds light on the current knowledge transfer between science and higher education research and the state ministries of science and asks about success factors for a mutual exchange of information between science and higher education researchers and ministry staff.
WiHoWiT is being carried out as a joint project with the HIS Institute for Higher Education Development (HIS-HE) in Hanover.
