The Managemenl Cenlre has now become a

fully-fledged Deparlmenl of Ihe College,

allhough il will slill be known as 'The

Management Cenlre'. Here Senior LeClurer

John Mark reviews Ihe hislory of

Management teaching al King's and

describes currenl deveJopmenls.

T he origin of managementteaching at the College can be

traced to the decision in 1969

by the Department of Food cience atQueen Elizabeth College to introduce

an undergraduate degree course in

'Food cience (with specialisation in

Management Studies)' in order to boost

their less than buoyant student

recruitment. Two staff were recruited - a

management specialist (Frank Brown)

and an economist (John Mark) - while

staff from the Department of ~utrition

provided teaehing in psychology and

sociology. The success of the new

degree prompted Brian Meek, then of

the Department of Mathematics and

now of the Computing Centre, to

suggest the establish ment of the'Mathematics and Management' degree,

and further degree in 'Chemistry with

:v1anagement' and 'Physics with

Management' were soon added. Two

further staff were brought in: Roger

trange (the current Head of

Department) and Ray Holland, who

transferred from Chelsea College.

ew developments have continued

apace since the merger in 1985, with the

Departments of Computer Science,

Engineering and French all introducing

new 'With :v1anagement' degree

courses. The popularity of these courses,however, provided the College with a

page 4

conundrum. Wa the intere tin

management education a temporary fad

which would soon pas, or was it a long­

term trend? A erie of Working Partie ,

tanding Committee, Peer Reviews

and other ad hoc bodies all considered

this question, and many people were

unconvinced that the popularity of

management education would be

sustained. Yet applications and tudent

number have continued to grow. In

19 9, the first intake of tudentS was

welcomed to the ingle Ilonour

'Bu ine Management' degree, and

there were over 2,000 application for

the 50 places available in the October

1993 intake. :"eedle to say, the

ucces ful candidates all ha e excellentA level grades. A further 40 tudent are

recruited annually to the 'Mathematicsand Management' degree, and 75

studentS to the various 'With

Management'degree . Each October

thu brings ome 165 new undergraduate

students, and we thus have contact with

some 500 undergraduate students at any

point in time (a sizeable proportion of

the total undergraduate population of

the College). In addition. a new MSc in

International Management has been

introduced with effect from October

1993. The cour e builds upon our

experience of teaching management to

science tudentS, and put particular

emphasl on the Issue ral ed by the

management of science and technology

in an international environment.

Throughout this period, staff numberhave al 0 increa ed, albeit at a lower

rate than the growth in student

numbers, and today the Management

Centre has 11 established academic

pOStS. As the staffing level ha increased

so too ha the re earch outpUt (too latefor the last Re earch As essment

Exercise, but in good time for thenext!). Two major ESRC-sponsoredbooks have been published this year.

The first is an 800-page Review of The

Food Induslries, written by John Mark

and Roger trange. The stud was

commi ioned b the Royal tati tical

ociet and the E RC, and was

pub" hed by Chapman & Hall avolume 2 of the authoritative eries of

UK tati tical Reviews which together

form a revised ver ion of Professor

Mauflce Kendall's seminal work in the

early po t-War year. The econd is a

-50-page study ofJapanese Manufacluring

Inveslmenl in Europe: ils Impacl on Ihe UK

Economy, by Roger trange, which ha

been published as part of the important

Routledge eries of tudie in

International Busine s.

The amount of re earch grant income

has also increa ed substantially.

Professor John MacDonald holds various

grants from Ilealth Authorities, and hasjust returned from a four-monthsabbatical in Canada where he wa in

receipt of a $30000 grant to take up theElia Chair at York 'niversity, Toronto,

Ray Holland has grants of£30,000+ from

the Everyman Centre and from

CCETSW related to learning in

organi ation and inter-profes ional

competence in social work. David Granthas a grant from the luffield

Foundation to look at trades unions and

political funds ballots, and is awaiting

funding for further work on Japanese

employer relations practices in the UK.

Jane Raybould has received £15,000 a

her hare of a major research project (co­

ordinated by the London Business

chool) to analy e the City of London's

competitive po ition relative to other

international financial centres. Chris

author a book on the marketing of

financial ervices. Patrick Barber has

The de cnption of the Government's

propo al for Icgi lation on wdent

lnion a 'perver ely clumsy' (Commenl,

ptember 1 9 ) command widespread

agreement. I will probabl be leading for

the Liberal Democra if the Bill ever

reache the I Iou e of Lord. and I have

therefore drawn the Department For

Education's attention to con iderable

difficultie which will face the

Parliamentary draftsmen if the Bill is

proceedcd \ ith. At the Liberal

Democrat Conference in Torquay on

Scptember 19, I spoke in favour ofa

motion moved by the Pre ident of ljLlj

condemning the Government'

propo al . Th i was carried

overwhelmingly. with one single

di sentient.

ience , repre ented both King's and

hi ociety at a recent International

ympo ium Darc;;in and lilt Beagle in

Chile: Evolulion Toda), a satellite

meeting of the IC C ([ nternational

Council of cientific lnions) General

A sembly, held in antiago 29

eptember to 1 October 1993.

Profe or Gardiner, who had initially

helped organi e the accompanying

exhibition, presented the lnwer ity of

Chile with a 3' replica of the Linnean

ociety's Darwin portrait. lIe al 0

presided over the first day's proceeding

and delivered the opening lecture on

behalf of Profe or Richard Darwin

Ke nes, FR ,(who was unable to

attend) - entitled The VO)oge oflhe Beagle.

The importance of Darwin's sojourn

in Chile can be gauged by the fact that

before he left Iquique on 14 July 1 35

(that is two year before he adopted a

transmutationist hypothe~is)he had

already sketched a narrative history of

the South American continent in which

the commencement of life, the

extinction of some species and the

creation of others were all given a place.

Before the cnd of the voyage hc had

reached the conclu ion that the doctrinc

of the fixity of species would have to be

replaced by some form of evolutionary

theory, though he had not arrived at any

mechanism.

he meetlllg and cxhlbltion received

financial backing from both Foreign

Office and Briti h Council while King' .

in a goodwill gesture to the lniversity of

Chile, pon ored Profe sor Gardiner.

The exhibition together with the

Darwin portrait will eventuall) be

permanently housed in the :vi useo

After previou ucce ful trip to

Italy and to the Lake Di trict,

King's College Chapel hoir

made its 1993 tour to Paris in the

beginning of July. We pent only a few

days in the city but our twO 'gigs', a

concert in the American Epi copalian

Cathedral and High Y1a sat :"otre

Dame, filled our time and could not

have been bettered. The annual tour i a

very u eful time for the chOir; a

culmination of the year's work, a time

for fun and frolic, a few day of inten i e

rehear ai, and an excellent opportun ity

for the choir to gel ociallya well a

mu icall)'. In this, our trip was no

d isa ppoi ntmen t.

Y1 uch preparation goes into a music

tour, especially one abroad, and

provision had to be made for

hepherding twenty-five or so disparate

soul through the maze that i the Paris

Metro, without losing music, organist or

Chaplain. David Trendell our director

had put many hour into the

organisation, liasing with musicians in

Paris, and setting up our concerts and

Y1ass, 0 that everything ran 5urpri ingly

smoothly.

inging in the magnificent American

Cathedral, the huge edifice built by

Street, wa a marvellous experience; our

concert comprised a wide variety of

sacred music from the early Renais ance

to the twentieth century, the high pot

being "Y1i5sa Euge 130ne" by the mid-

ixteenth century English compo er

Christopher Tye, inter persed with

motets by William l3yrd, including his

sublime ettingof'lnfelix Ego'. Our

audience, a mixture of tourists, and

French and American resident, wa

appreciative, and many of them were to

be seen again at High Y1a at, 'otre

Dame where we ang "Mis a Bell'

Amfitrit' Altera'" by the prolific

composer of the flemish chool,

Orlandus La u. :"otre Dame i an

enormous cathedral with a mas ive

acou tic, perfect for thi beautifully

rc onant Renai sance work with its

oaring 'cori- pezzati' harmonies. The

Cathedral was packcd at this its main

Sunday :vla s; even so, from thc quirc

behind the 'ave altar, the congregation

seemed mall and ver far away. It wa a

splendid occasion, an experience to sta

with the choir for a long time.

This year' tour was for all of us a

great ucces and ha given u an

enormous boo t; it has al 0 set us up

well for the new se sion, and for our

work in the coming year.

the busiest of the year for

the choir. culminating as it

does in the three Ad ent carol ervice

and events both in and out ide of
