It is recognized in the foreseeable future that in the demand for energy resources and global warming, the environment will formthe key driver for societal and governmental concern and change. The solutions would require complex interactions between thethree elements of the Triple Helix. Subject/discipline-based academic departments will simply not be in a position to addressthese issues, rather the value chain extending from inter- and cross-disciplinary activity (combining research, knowledgeexchange, and education) to partnering with multiple industries, catalysed by government policies would lead to new structuresthat go beyond traditional university models of governance and departmental configurations.Further details of such radical rethinking and associated issues will be presented in the paper.REFERENCES- Carroll, Lewis: ‘Through the looking-glass, and what Alice found there’, Macmillan & Co, 224pp, 1871.- Van Valen, Leigh: ‘A new evolutionary law’, Evolutionary Theory, 1: 1-30, 1973.- ‘Escaping the Red Queen Effect’, PA Consulting Group, 2009. http://www.paconsulting.com/our-thinking/escaping-the-redqueen-effect/- http://www.hefce.ac.uk/news/hefce/2010/grant1011/- Durrani, Tariq S: ‘From temples of knowledge to supermarkets of ideas’.
