Welcome

This blog was created as part of the Erasmus Mundus Crossways in Cultural Narratives Masters programme, which is the only one of the EU approved and funded Erasmus Mundus Masters programmes to specialise in traditional humanities with a modern languages background. The Crossways Consortium comprises 6 top-class European universities.

For further information, please check the programme's official website and the universities' websites on the Useful Links section on the left. If you wish to have a specific question answered, please click on Email here and submit your query.

Mundus students, here you will find regular posts regarding the universities of the consortium, tips, activities, events, pictures, etc. Apart from checking it regularly to keep yourself up to date, a good way to use the blog is through the search device. We already have a significant amount of information on some universities of the consortium, so if you want to find information on a specific city, type its name in the search field (top left). You will then see all posts related to that specific city (because each post title contains the city's name in it). You can also type "General" in order to find information concerning everybody.

Seminar: The Implications of Knowledge Transfer for Universities: the Case of the Arts and Humanities
by Professor David Shepherd and Helen Parrott, University of Sheffield

Abstract

Knowledge Transfer (KT) is an increasingly high-profile part of UK Government policy.  This interactive and exploratory seminar aims to explore whether KT is a uniquely UK concept. The seminar will begin with an introduction to Knowledge Transfer in the UK Higher Education context, with particular reference to the arts and humanities and the University of Sheffield experience.  Participants will be invited to discuss and feedback to the seminar on key questions, including:

How, if at all, is our version of Knowledge Transfer understood a) in your country, b) in your institution, c) by your subject area and d) by you? 

What are the implications of this understanding in an increasingly global world? 

When? Friday, 6 June
Where? The Conference Room, the Humanities Research Institute (See location map) at 2pm (UK, and will be connecting sites in Europe, China and the US by videoconference.
