The co-creative university has become the main driver of social and
economic development stimulating internal (students and academics)
and external creativity (companies and institutional environment)
as well as cooperation in various areas (e.g. applied graduation
theses, research projects, lifelong learning). Intended as a
contribution to a better understanding of how universities create
value in numerous areas, this book discusses the determinants of
creativity and ways of stimulating it with a special focus on
approaches and practical solutions relevant to teaching. Examples
include problem-oriented student theses, which represent a
successful combination of creativity with practical knowledge.
Based on the findings of international surveys of students, the
author offers an in-depth analysis of the differences between what
they expect from universities and the degree to which their
expectations are met. Comparing students' opinions with those of
employees of international corporations (working graduates)
permitted the author to test the actual utility of selected aspects
of university education. Regrettably, both groups of respondents
gave low ratings to support for developing creativity, which should
serve as a warning sign and inform future reforms at this level of
education. This book is primarily targeted to those involved in
education, policy-making, and socio-economic development. It
provides a rich source of information for university managers on
how to better fulfil their missions based on the idea of
co-creativity. It also suggests how to improve the effectiveness of
research and education in order to ensure that both can better
respond to current development challenges.
