Higher Education in the Gulf : Quality Drivers Hardback

Edited by Reynaldo Gacho (Institute of Science and Technology, UK) Segumpan, John McAlaney

Part of the Routledge Research in Higher Education series

Hardback

Description

This authoritative edited volume examines the drivers of higher education in the Gulf region.

It offers insightful analyses and examines contemporary pedagogical, management, strategic, and relevant issues on quality education that confront higher education institutions.

Written by higher education specialists, curriculum developers, and policy makers from diverse international backgrounds, the book analyses issues affecting the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region, with a particular focus on Oman and Saudi Arabia.

It is divided into regional and non-regional drivers and considers drivers as potent enablers of a management system and educational structure at the intersection of quality education and quality management in higher education.

Chapters include discussion of organisational, management, and policy issues including strategic innovation, internationalisation, quality assurance, and global rankings of higher education institutes.

The book includes discussion of the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic on teaching and learning policies, practices, and programmes.

This book will serve as an essential reference for quality management in higher education institutions in the Gulf, and will be highly relevant reading for academics, researchers, and students of higher education, education management, and quality education in the Gulf region.
