I am a Senior Lecturer at the Melbourne Graduate School of Education, University of Melbourne. My main areas of research are higher education policy and governance and the sociology of organizations. I have researched and published on issues such as universities’ internal responses to national research funding settings, the politics of research performance measurement, universities’ organizational autonomy, and the unintended effects of large-scale policy and governance reform on institutional diversity. More recently I have developed a growing research interest in novel forms and dynamics of bureaucratization within universities.
