Exploring the meaning of institutional transformation in relation to: outreach, admissions, induction and transition, learning and teaching, personal tutoring and support, research and progression beyond HE Identifying approaches to managing institutional transformation Involving students in the process of transformation Illustrating and developing these themes through a serious of mini international case studies.
