Neither Free, Neither Subdued

The choice of a strategy is difficult for a university from a country accessing the EU next year. There are many constraints and the institution may be tempted to follow contradictory examples. These options can be distributed across a three-dimensional model involving the mission, the governance and the financing system. The collegial model seems inevitable for a research university, considering the creative personality of the researchers, who need freedom and avert conformity. It requires many resources and a lot of networking. But if the national universities do not seek international partnerships and links with the industry, they are at risk: the international research universities will establish extensions that can be more effective than the local institutions.
