Li Tang; Hugo Horta – Minerva: A Review of Science, Learning and Policy, 2024
The persistent gender inequalities in higher education are an ongoing concern among academics. This paper investigates how male and female academics perceive the need for gender-related changes to support academic women's career advancement in China. Drawing on 40 interviews with male and female academics at a leading Chinese research university,…

Mäkinen, Elina I.; Sapir, Adi – Minerva: A Review of Science, Learning and Policy, 2023
Academic entrepreneurship and the commercialization of science have transformed higher education in recent decades. Although there is ample research on the topic, less is known about how individual scientists experience and perceive the transformation. Drawing on a narratological approach to sensemaking, this study examines how entrepreneurial…

Bozeman, Barry; Gaughan, Monica – Minerva: A Review of Science, Learning and Policy, 2023
We use the term "Zoomification" to refer to the primary mode of research collaboration used by academic researchers during much of the COVID-19 pandemic. While neither video-enabled technology or remote collaboration is new, the technology developments and needs that occurred during the pandemic proved exceptional, indeed a step-change…

Colleret, Maxime; Gingras, Yves – Minerva: A Review of Science, Learning and Policy, 2022
This study analyses the patenting activities of university science and engineering professors in Canada between 1920 and 1975. Unlike most studies on commercial activities in academia, which typically focus on the post-1980 period and on university practices, we focus on the pre-1980 period and on the individual decisions of professors to patent…

De Moortel, Kevin; Crispeels, Thomas; Xie, Jinyu; Jing, Qiaosong – Minerva: A Review of Science, Learning and Policy, 2022
Temporary international mobility is an increasingly relevant practice amongst academics. However, current literature lacks understanding on whether such mobility influences the individual academics' entrepreneurial knowledge. This paper hypothesizes that temporary international academic mobility is conducive to the academic's entrepreneurial…

Lekka-Kowalik, Agnieszka – Minerva: A Review of Science, Learning and Policy, 2022
In 2015, Willem Halffman and Hans Radder published in "Minerva" a paper, in which they diagnosed that our universities are colonized by "The Wolf of management." Using the example of the reforms afflicting the Polish academic world, I show that this colonization has intensified, and apart from the processes described in the…

Hoang, Cuong Huu; Dang, Trang Thi Doan – Minerva: A Review of Science, Learning and Policy, 2022
Given the importance of research communities and research mentoring activities in developing research skills, universities around the world have paid special attention to improving these two dimensions. However, developing research communities and research mentoring culture in Vietnamese universities largely remain at a nascent stage because these…

Reymert, Ingvild – Minerva: A Review of Science, Learning and Policy, 2021
This paper investigates the use of metrics to recruit professors for academic positions. We analyzed confidential reports with candidate evaluations in economics, sociology, physics, and informatics at the University of Oslo between 2000 and 2017. These unique data enabled us to explore how metrics were applied in these evaluations in relation to…

Xu, Xin; Oancea, Alis; Rose, Heath – Minerva: A Review of Science, Learning and Policy, 2021
Incentives for improving research productivity at universities prevail in global academia. However, the rationale, methodology, and impact of such incentives and consequent evaluation regimes are in need of scrutinization. This paper explores the influences of financial and career-related publishing incentive schemes on research cultures. It draws…

Hermanowicz, Joseph C. – Minerva: A Review of Science, Learning and Policy, 2021
Honesty is widely understood as an ethical imperative in science and scholarship. This article examines the operation of this ethic in an area crucial to academe but which has not received sufficient attention: faculty review of candidates seeking appointment to academic rank--in hiring and promotion--in U.S. higher education organizations.…

Ohly, Sandra; Schneijderberg, Christian – Minerva: A Review of Science, Learning and Policy, 2021
Acting as a reviewer is considered a substantial part of the role-bundle of the academic profession (quality assurance (QA) and quality enhancement (QE) role). Research literature about peer review, for example, for journals and grants, shows that acting as a peer reviewer adds to an academic's reputation. However, little is known about academics'…

Nästesjö, Jonatan – Minerva: A Review of Science, Learning and Policy, 2021
There is a lack of objective evaluative standards for academic work. While this has been recognized in studies of how gatekeepers pass judgment on the works of others, little is known about how scholars deal with the uncertainty about how their work will be evaluated by gatekeepers. Building upon 35 interviews with early career academics in…

Curran, Michaela; Bloom, Quinn; Brint, Steven – Minerva: A Review of Science, Learning and Policy, 2020
For U.S. research universities, cluster hiring has become a popular means to add faculty members in university-defined priority fields. The expectation of advocates is that these faculty members will collaborate on high-impact research. Utilizing a national sample of 168 cluster-hire faculty members from eight U.S. research universities, we find…

Ortiga, Yasmin Y.; Chou, Meng-Hsuan; Wang, Jue – Minerva: A Review of Science, Learning and Policy, 2020
Increasing competition among research universities has spurred a race to recruit academic labor to staff research teams, graduate programs, and laboratories. Yet, often ignored is how such efforts entail negotiating a pervasive hierarchy of universities, where elite institutions in the West continue to attract the best students and researchers…

Bauder, Harald – Minerva: A Review of Science, Learning and Policy, 2020
The relationship between the international mobility of academic researchers and social capital is complex. On the one hand, the literature suggests that social capital facilitates the international mobility of academics which, in turn, promotes the accumulation of international social capital, enhances research productivity, and advances careers.…
