Project members Nicoline Frølich (NIFU) and Bjørn Stensaker’s (UiO/NIFU) paper on missions and diversity has been accepted for publication in Higher Education. Focusing on institutional missions, the current study analyses the strategic plans of both merged and non-merged institutions in Norway. The key finding is that mergers may not necessarily reduce system level diversity, although mergers indeed may affect the organisational mission of individual institutions.
