CITATION
Emeritus Professor Grant Harman of the New South Wales Branch has given huge amounts of his time, energy and vision to many events in the ATEM New South Wales Branch calendar over many years, including the Higher Education Updates, the Branch Conferences and the Career Development Days.
At the national and international levels he has also made a major contribution to the development of our profession. He has also steadily published many of the defining works of our profession over the last two decades.
His interests are very broad and cover:
• Higher education policy and management
• Comparative international studies
• The academic profession
• Quality assurance for higher education
• University-industry research links, and
• Technology transfer and research commercialisation
He is on the Editorial Board of our own Journal of Higher Education Policy and Management, and also three other Editorial Boards in the Netherlands, South Africa and the United Kingdom.
Grant Harman has many entries in ATEM’s own defining work, the Suggested Reading List of the Classics in Tertiary Education Management, which carefully selects out those works, from the 11th Century to the present day, which have withstood the test of time and which are required reading for any practitioner who is serious about our profession.
It is with great pleasure that I bestow upon Grant Harman ATEM’s highest award – the award of Honorary Fellow.
