  • Resumen

  • 'The New Social Contract' is a podcast that seeks to contribute to a national conversation on how the relationship between universities, the state and the public might be reshaped as we live through the COVID-19 pandemic. Universities have existed for close to a thousand years. Across the centuries they have been places for making sense of the world and for shaping it. But under the pressures of war, political, social and economic demands, these institutions have often been remade. Join us as we begin a conversation about the kind of higher education sector our society needs.

    8. The future of higher education - who will set the settings?
    Jul 2 2020
    In the season finale of The New Social Contract, host Tamson Pietsch is joined by Dr Gwilym Croucher, Senior Lecturer at the Melbourne Centre for the Study of Higher Education, to consider for the final time how the relationship between universities, the state and the public might be reshaped as we live through the COVID-19 pandemic.
    In this episode we look beyond Federal Education Minister Tehan’s proposals to ask three questions:
    1. What is the vision for higher education that lies behind the Coalition Government’s plans?
    2. What bigger questions about universities do they raise?
    3. What might be some of the other ways those questions could be answered?

    7. The purpose of universities in the 21st century - A Vice-Chancellor and Shadow Education Minister's perspective
    Jun 22 2020
    Higher education leaders and policy makers in Australia are facing a lot of hard decisions right now.
    The New Social Contract Podcast spoke with UTS Vice-Chancellor Professor Attila Brungs and Shadow Minister for Education and Training Tanya Plibersek to find out their different perspectives on the purpose and role of universities in the 21st century.
    There are lots of factors contributing to the uncertainty in the tertiary sector at present - will international students return? How much debt can be sustained? What will happen to research funding?
    But one thing that would make it easier to act in the present, is a clear plan for what universities should do in the future. What are universities in Australia for? The answer to that question will shape the kind of system we get.


    *Note: The interview with Vice-Chancellor Professor Attila Brungs took place on Tuesday June 9 2020.The interview with Tanya Plibersek, Shadow Minister for Education and Training took place on Tuesday June 16 2020.
