Integrating Disciplinary Perspectives into Higher Education Research The Example of History
This article explores how higher education research has been built through methodological and epistemological contributions of the disciplines, including history. It also examines how discipline-based scholars might use higher education to explore important questions in their fields, noting how work on access, mobility, financing, curriculum, and policy-making, for example, has benefitted through cross-disciplinary scholarship. Recognizing the potential resistance within the disciplines, the author encourages the consideration of contemporary educational puzzles when forming their research agendas.
