AB  - Using national survey data and a variety of secondary sources, this chapter explores key challenges facing the academic profession in Australia today and how academics have responded. Particular attention is given to how academics have responded to a more managerial university administration and culture, with a much stronger emphasis on entrepreneurial activities within departments and faculties and enhanced university-industry links. The chapter summarizes major Australian policy and contextual changes, explores how academics in general have reacted, and documents aspects of the impact of changes on academic qualifications, work roles and practices, job satisfaction and academic values.
