Exploring the making of a modern civic university
This volume surveys the creation and growth of the University of Liverpool, tracing how a bold civic project overcame doubt, scarce endowments, and fierce competition with older universities to become a center of teaching, research, and public service.
In clear, accessible chapters, you’ll see how government and city support, plus private philanthropy, helped shape five faculties, professional training, and a growing range of scientific work. The collection also highlights how the university supports teachers, clergy, doctors, and public health, turning complex ideas into practical benefits for the city and beyond.Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.
