What significance does Publishing Studies have right now?

Abstract

Publishing Studies are surely the epitome of how an open-minded discipline can operate collaboratively, blending different methodologies and practices. Publishing Studies offer what governments say they want from their universities: industry-relevant research that provides market-ready, employable students with strong industry links. Publishing Studies are naturally interdisciplinary, providing a broader approach to education than the traditionally narrow focus of academic studies. The international outlook of publishing makes it a useful model for how to manage cross-disciplinary and cross-faculty collaboration.
