Abstract

This article seeks to analyse the factors that encourage or impede a university’s engagement with the economic development and regeneration agendas of its region. The article draws on work conducted by a team at Newcastle University for the Department of Education and Employment (DfEE) during 1996 and 1997. The work involved a detailed case study of one region – the North East of England – with comparative data obtained from the West Midlands. A 2x2 matrix is developed by the authors from the data using the twin functions of teaching and research analysed against organisational structure and funding.
