This dissertation utilizes performance-based funding for higher education in Europe as the mechanism through which to interrogate broader relationships between universities and their external resource environments.

I then devote the latter two studies of my dissertation to exploring the relationship between performance-based funding allocations and organizational behavior at UK universities.
