Abstract:A profound change is now taking place in British universities which challenges the traditional academic values of autonomy and self-regulation: regular and systematic appraisal of both individual academics and departments. This case study reports an in-depth analysis of departmental appraisal in the Faculty of Science at the University of Birmingham. The different expectations, concerns and reactions of those directly involved are highlighted and explored. From this analysis a number of conclusions are drawn that might inform similar initiatives in other institutions.This is a revised and extended version of a paper presented at the Annual Conference of the Society for Research into Higher Education on Restructuring Higher Education, Birmingham Polytechnic, December 16–18, 1987.
