Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Bookplate on inside page. Dust jacket has some creasing at top edge.

WAIT to Curtin traces the Western Australian Institute of Technology's beginnings from earlier institutions and agencies, examines the furious growth phase until 1975, reviews later policy controversies and recounts the extraordinary events that led to the emergence of Curtin University of Technology in 1987, thus signalling the demise of the binary philosophy that had guided Australia higher education for twenty years.
