A time evolution study of the ecologies of collaboration in two business schools.

Abstract

In this dissertation, the ecologies of collaboration among the academics at two business schools, namely, the Nanyang Business School (NBS) and INSEAD were studied by analysing the ten-year publication output of the two schools using techniques from both scientometrics and social network analysis. These two lenses provided two views that complemented each other. When the two views were taken together, they made it possible for the ecology of collaboration at the two schools to be understood more holistically.
