Aim & Scope

Higher Education Governance and Policy (HEGP) is the scholarly journal of the Association for Higher Education Studies (Yükseköğretim Çalışmaları Derneği). HEGP aims to inform an international audience about higher education policies and management practices around the world.

The core scope of HEGP is the development of higher education policies and their reflections in management practices in different countries’ systems. Considering their policy-making and strategy-management functions together, the larger scope of HEGP includes shaping governance structures in the higher education sector from an institutional to a global level. Accordingly, HEGP prioritises studies with an international perspective on policy development and managerial practices in higher education. While authors take an institutional, local, or national case as a basis, they should enrich their studies through comparative and international discussions structuring on different higher education institutions such as universities, research institutes, community colleges, or vocational schools.
