- Description
- The purpose of the paper is to explore issues of interdisciplinarity in Australian management education. The arguments proposed by Knights and Willmott (1997) are applied to Australian business schools, particularly Australian graduate schools of business (AGSB). The papers focuses on, first, the perceptions of academics on the existence of interdisciplinarity in teaching, research and governance, and second, the impact of preparations for the proposed research assessment exercise on interdisciplinarity. Literature analysis and empirical research are used to provide indications of the extent, form and changes in interdisciplinarity in Australian graduate schools of business. Interviews with AGSB academics were held in 2002-03, prior to the announcement of RQF and again in 2008, after preparations for RQF.
