Managing Change at Universities - a selection of case studies from Africa and Southeast Asia

Abstract

This publication contains nine case studies of change processes in higher education institutions in Africa and Asia. The case studies show the wide variety of challenges higher education institutions face. Quality management has become a key issue in virtually all countries around the world. The search for strategies for faculties or smaller units is another important issue. The authors show how careful reflection on the challenges, on the options available, on benchmarking internationally can help in identifying viable ways for managing the institutional transformation.
