Abstract
This paper reports on an on-going implementation of an institution-wide strategy for integrating and embedding Industry Engaged Learning into the curriculum. A case study on organisational change and curriculum enhancement, rationale and strategy for and components and assessment of the transformation are detailed. As such, the paper makes a general contribution to the literature on organisational change, and may be of particular value in the higher education context. Executives endeavouring to promote university renewal or encompassing curriculum change, and those concerned with enhancing learning outcomes from Industry Engaged Learning and similar models (e.g., Cooperative Education, Work Integrated Learning, Professional Practice) will find the paper relevant, fresh, thorough, and helpful.
