DESCRIPTION
A presentation of partnership campuses, multi-institutional campuses, multi-university campuses as a global trend. From a presentation for Seinäjoki University Consortium Forum, Conference, Sept 23rd, 2011 by me, Anders Norberg, Campus Skellefteå, Sweden.
Citation preview
Partnership Campuses – a global key trend?
Anders Norberg
Education Strategist
Campus Skellefteå
Universities vs place
…changes over time
First medieval universities were communities and corporations
of masters and students
University outreach perspective
Main campus
Branch campuses
Learning centres
International campus
…and there are 17000+ universities… (source:Webometrics)
Illustration by Thomas Hansen for Universitas, No
What is a ”partnership campus”?
• …or a multi-university campus?• …or a multi-institutional campus?• …or an education hub?
Well, it is not…
• The same main campus for two universities• A multi-campus university• A university system• A university cradle• A multiversity
Definition attempt
"A campus where two or more distant educational institutions cooperate with each other and local development agencies to create new educational and training opportunities in a locality deprived of such opportunities“
(Prof Rex Taylor, Director of University of Glasgow’s operations on Crichton Campus, presentation på Campus Skellefteå October 26th, 2005)

Learning centre
CUC Falmouth
Tremough Campus, Falmouth
Cornwall/UK
CUC= “Combined Universities Cornwall” (coordination organisation)
PaC – “recipe”
• >1 regional university with decentralised F2F (face-to-face) classes
• Learning centre with support to flexible learning students• Local R&D, development projects, mm• Vocational and polytechnical education • Science Park, Business labs & business startup• Local coordination organisation needed• Local construction and ownership of buildings and
infrastructure? Or is there an older useful infrastructure?
= concentration of development factors in one place, a PaC – representing the direction towards the future?
Partnership Campus?= Learning centre?
= University branch campus?
• Is a PaC an overgrown learning centre, XL?
• Is a PaC a university campus formed on local initiative??
• Is PaC a flexible environment for universities to reach out?
Zayed University, Abu Dhabi, UAE
And the other way around:
..there are no future-confident regions that lack higher education, research and innovation?
Lets add scale…
Guangzhou Mega Education City
• In the first free economic zone in China - population growth from 30 000 to 15 millions in 30 years
Start 2005: 10 000 students, soon 120 000, Finally 350 000 – 400 000 studentsSun Yat-sen University, South China University of Technology, South China Normal University, Guangdong University of Foreign Studies, Guangdong University of Technology, Guangzhou University, Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine, Guangdong Pharmaceutical University, Xinghai Conservatory of Music Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts
Lets add culture collisions
Great Northern Way Campus, Vancouver, Canada (gnwc.ca)
University of British Columbia
Started for colliding university cultures in superb media education?
Or add more research?
Seinäjoki Campus, Finland
Kajaani
Pori
Lahti
Mikkeli
Kokkola
…other
MUC / Univ consortia
And the US?
PaC PROBLEM AREAS
• PaC is very dependent on the universities• If the PaC cannot attract additional students and
money, no university is interested• A PaC has often more education than research• A PaC can become expensive for the local
region/city – their ambition can be bigger than the ambitions of the universities
• A PaC is hard to understand at first glance
PaC POSSIBILITIES
• Very flexible through cooperation with different universities
• A way for regions without a university to offer good local education possibilities
• The connection between local/regional development and education offerings can be strong
• Synergy effects between universities possible• If one university leaves, another can be connected• The PaC recruits mostly students that won´t move to a
big campus – and these students will often stay in the area after exam –if, but only if, there are jobs…
Alternatives for local representation of a
university on a partnership campus • Research and teaching department?• Regional office? • Research group?• Only educations?• Franchise construction?• Subcontractor?
…or rely more or less on a coordination organisation?(federation of universities or local development
organisation)
University-University-relations on a PaC
• Parallelism?• Coordination?• Cooperation?• Competition?• Coopetition?
• Vertical relation – to mother university• Horisontal relation – to other universities and
stakeholders on the Partnership Campus
Policy agreement?
Common goals?
Contract?
Deal?
Silent coexistence?
Open warfare?
Let´s add differentiation of education
Qatar Education City
Formed for differentiation of education in the county?
Coordination and support organisation is the Qatar Foundation
Qatar Education City
…”Khalifa University”?
Let´s add the competitive and commercial forces

”Tax Free Zone”
–´for education and research
- Universities can apply online…
- A ”university hotel”?
+ Sarawak campus
Let´s add strategic ambitions
But what´s in it for universities?
• Specialisation of research in global competition makes a university handicapped in broadness of local education offerings
• Possibility to concentrate on focus areas in teaching • Possibility to share campus service and infrastructure
costs• In some countries – easier to get funding for cooperation• No-one questions cooperation and competition
(”coopetition”) for quality in research – now education is next
PaC now also in development hotspots

“To maintain its economic diversity and remain competitive in the21st Century economy, the City must expand its applied sciences capabilities, and as a global business and academic capital with more than 626,000 post-secondary students, it is poised to do so.” (from RFP)
Why NY Tech Campus for applied science and engineering?
“A Respondent to this RFP may include more than one Institution as well as one or more other organizations. (…)NYCEDC prefers that any Respondent that is otherwise based outside of the United States include at least one Institution that is based in the United States.” (From RFP)

My own speculations
• Are PaC:s one component in a new education logistics paradigm, characterised not by
• Place, distance, distribution• But by global social knowledge processes
involving places – Blended learning?– Increasingly specialised universities?– More community and business involvement?– Much better access to education?
Questions? Problems? Possibilites?
Future?
• Will most knowledge environments in the future be of a multi-university kind?
