Projects
The Academic Profession in the Knowledge Society: Canadian Chapter
In 2017-18 our research team administered a national survey of faculty in Canada as part of the international Academic Profession in the Knowledge-based Society project. This international project involves more than 20 national research teams.
Changing Academic Profession Study
In 2007 the Changing Academic Profession (CAP) survey was administered in 18 countries. This major international project involved the administration of a common questionnaire to a sample of university faculty in multiple countries. The study focused on faculty perceptions of academic work, working conditions, job satisfaction, research activities, teaching activities, work history, and a range of demographic variables. The project design was highly decentralized, with national research teams collecting data and coordinating with other teams through international meetings.
