The 2002 Program: The Changing Academy

In 1997, Professor Martin Trow argued that information technologies would cut new channels through our great institutions of higher learning, resulting in unpredictable changes. Indeed the traditional academy has been changed considerably in an era driven by knowledge. The 2002 ECAR Symposium has been designed to bring together those who have crafted many of higher education's recent changes with those who have studied these changes. Sessions have been designed to encourage interaction at the nexus of theory, analysis, and practice.

Symposium overview

The ECAR Symposium is a subscriber-only event, held annually at the incomparable Hotel del Coronado on San Diego's Coronado Island. Two individuals from ECAR Participating Subscriber institutions are eligible to participate and receive complimentary registrations.

The Symposium brings together world-class researchers and analysts whose study of higher education and information technology evolves either directly from work undertaken under the aegis of ECAR or from work that is likely to be highly complementary to work undertaken by ECAR. The ECAR Symposium program is designed in particular to balance experts from academe and ECAR research fellows with leading researchers and analysts from ECAR research partners such as Eduventures, IDC, INPUT, Gartner, and others.

Participants in the ECAR Symposium help shape the ECAR research agenda for the next 18 months. Significant time is allocated to an open-forum assessment of research priorities and evaluation of hot topics for research and analysis, including discussion of speaker and topic priorities for the 2003 Symposium.

November 5, 5:30 p.m.–Reception and dinner
