The aim of the project is to contribute to our understanding of contemporary administrative modes of governance in education, and particularly our understanding on how budgeting practices affect the mode, or present configurations, of university education. The project looks into numbers in budgets in two case universities in Denmark and Norway respectively. The empirical foci of the project include workload allocation models, prediction of future performance in performance-based funding, and opacities arising when using several competing accounting systems in parallel.
