公民大学

本书通过探索有责任为公众提供贡献的机构作为责任的机构，解决了最大化高等教育对民间社会贡献的领导力，管理和公共政策挑战。它根据本领域广泛的学术文献编制，并审查了高等教育和其他公共政策，即在全球和当地驾驶和禁止公民参与。

Comparing experiences and reports of an institutional developmental process undertaken in eight distinctive universities in four European countries and guided by the editors the book explores key questions such as: what is the Civic University, and how can we use this concept to understand higher education’s engagement with the outside world in varying institutional and geographical contexts? What are the appropriate internal structures and mechanisms required for a university to effectively encourage and support civic engagement activity for the greatest societal impact? How can embedding civic engagement in individual institutions and wider systems be facilitated by changes in higher education and related policies at the sub-national, national and European level?

公明和挑剔，公民大学将对高等教育，科学和创新研究和社区和城市发展中的学术界有益。它还将呼吁大学领导人和机构领导力发展计划的组织者以及国家和国际一级的城市领导和政策制定者。
