NMITE AND THE POLITICAL ECONOMY OF HIGHER EDUCATION: 2023 PARLIAMENTARY LECTURE

Jesse Norman

National Institute Economic Review, 2024, vol. 267, 66-73

Abstract: The New Model Institute for Technology and Engineering (NMITE) reflects a systematic attempt to rethink what a higher education (HE) institution should look like, based on the best globally competitive models. NMITE has been designed as a model for a small, new, distinctive, open, academically rigorous, skills-based local university. Many cities or large towns across the UK have low economic growth and low value-added per capita, and little or no access to HE. Addressing this gap in attainment successfully would be both equitable and highly economically and culturally advantageous. It would be a major contribution to local people, local communities and to raising regional and national productivity.
