Major research universities have three missions: teaching, research and engagement. This presentation makes the argument that engagement provides the lens through which to see how universities can transform.
Through engagement, universities can generate new flows of revenues to support both teaching and research. Engagement also provides new opportunities for research and more powerful learning experiences for students.
