Keynote abstract
Sport Education Program Survival and Development in 21st Century Higher Education: Navigating Global Corporate Funding for Student Success and the Greater Good
A growing consumer culture, decreasing government funding, and increased student access have combined to create massive transformation in higher education in the United States and around the globe. The change in the paradigm of higher education to a more corporate/entrepreneurial model has been so dramatic that most colleges and universities now exist within an increasingly more global market that requires each institution to seek their students through active marketing, find new sources of revenue, and serve the needs of external stakeholders who provide the funding no longer available from State sources.
Research in an entrepreneurial university is knowledge production. However, this knowledge production is not what has typified research in the past. Traditional research activities are conducted within the boundaries of university-based research. It moves beyond the social and cognitive norms that govern scholarly research to being trans-disciplinary in nature. This means research must be application-oriented, with practical implications in associated industries and meets the demands of external stakeholders. This new approach is more complex because not only does it involve those stakeholders, it also requires researchers come from multiple disciplines who work in cooperation to solve stakeholder problems. This type of trans-disciplinary, application-oriented research can be the driving force behind institutional collaboration with commercial organizations.
In light of the shifting nature of higher education funding and the pressures that have come with this change, the purpose of this presentation is threefold: First, a brief overview of the paradigm of higher education is provided. Second, innovative approaches for exploiting external partnerships are discussed. Finally, basic strategies for maintaining academic and professional ethics are proposed.
There is a special publication opportunity for the presenters of Sports and Innovation International Conference. The purpose of the journal entitled Physical Education, Sport and Science (PSS), issued four times a year by the University of Physical Education, Budapest, Hungary is to publish high standard articles in Hungarian and English languages, in the field of basic sport sciences and those related to the applied research pursued by sports professionals. The papers of the present conference are to be compiled in a special thematic issue focusing on innovation. The journal promotes the publication of original research articles, review articles and book reviews, and provides forum for the abstracts of scientific conferences organized at the University of Physical Education. Original and review articles will go through a review process (independent, double-blind reviews), while book reviews are to be published by invited authors.
TST/PSS welcomes manuscripts of original research and reviews on any field of sport sciences, such as physical education, training methods, society and economy. Since this journal is bilingual, we also accept manuscripts by international authors. Adapting to the Internet-based world, PSS will be published online, thus it is available for all readers and it promotes the dissemination of knowledge and scientific research in sport sciences. The Editorial Board consists of well-known national and international researchers.
