The steady increase in joint programmes and qualifications offered by UK and French universities is a cause for celebration. But language constraints, financial pressures and political uncertainty present real obstacles to continued expansion. How are these to be overcome? And how can higher education institutions on either side of the Channel help each other to realise the enormous potential of Franco-British partnerships? Franco-British Academic Partnerships: The Next Chapter is a valuable opportunity not only to take stock of intensifying bilateral cooperation in the higher education sector, but also to share experience and best practice, and, hopefully, to identify some new initiatives and areas for collaboration. Boasting contributions from leading politicians and higher education managers, alongside essays from distinguished international scholars, the book will be required reading for academics and university leaders.

The Next Chapter

Franco-British Academic Partnerships

While the steady increase in joint programs offered by British and French universities is cause for considerable celebration, a variety of obstacles, including language constraints, financial pressures, and political uncertainty, have hindered their continued expansion. Bringing together contributors from within academia, the government, and prominent institutions, Franco-British Academic Partnerships: The Next Chapter takes stock of intensifying bilateral cooperation in higher education and explores how institutions on either side of the Channel can help realize the enormous potential of Franco-British partnerships. With its wealth of suggestions for new initiatives and areas for collaboration, this book will be required reading for academics and university leaders.
