Abstract:
According to David Harvey, neoliberal ideology has emerged as the current hegemonic economic discourse. Therefore, Harvey contends that neoliberalism has permeated every aspect of society, including institutions of higher education. However, the role of neoliberal ideology is perceived as a form of common sense, and thus proponents of neoliberal policies often do not realize that the programs and policies that they are implementing are neoliberal. Furthermore, Harvey argues that another aspect of neoliberalism is its propensity to exclude or ignore society. This thesis explores the relati

Case study design, employing qualitative research methods, was used to document and examine a mandatory service-learning program at a new, comprehensive, public university. The study examined service-learning from multiple perspectives. Institutional theory provided a framework for examining the influence of the environment on the conceptualization, adoption, and implementation of service-learning. Program theory was used to identify and analyze the program's conceptual underpinnings, including goals and objectives, intended outcomes for students, and program processes. Knowledge of how a prog

Abstract:
This thesis presents the results of a study of institutional innovation in higher education. After 1989 the structures and systems of higher education in a number of countries in Central and Eastern Europe were exposed to turbulent pressures from their radically changing environments, triggered by the fall of the communist regimes in the region. As a consequence, during the period of transition of the post- communist societies towards democratisation and market reform, new higher education institutions emerged, and new actors entered the higher education scene. Despite the potential of these d

Abstract:
[Extract from article by Ms Merle Hodges]: A recent article points to the feeling of alienation that students feel when studying away from home. It seeks to address the problem by establishing a range of fora where foreign students can feel more ‘at home’. It encourages host students to be more willing to accommodate these ‘outsiders’ in order to boost the reputation of the institution. Most of these initiatives are slightly patronising, but obviously well-meant. The overriding sense behind the article is that international students, within higher education institutions, are a benevolent burde

[Extract from article by Ms Merle Hodges]: Over the past year there have been numerous conferences dealing with one general topic. How is it possible for higher education, globally, to produce the same quality in its graduates, research and community outreach when the financial resources entering into the system are radically declining? The conclusion is overwhelmingly despondent. ‘Universities have to do more with less, academics and academic research will increasingly be pressurised by lower salaries internally and career temptations from the corporate world – the impact of which is the grea

[Extract from message from Minister of Higher Education and Training, Hon. Dr BE Nzimande]: The 10th Edition focuses on the highly relevant issue of ‘Higher Education Internationalisation in the Development of Africa’. The internationalisation of higher education is of great importance for the continent, if Africa wants to be able to compete and participate in a global context. Currently, there are only three African institutions in the Top 500 of the Shanghai Academic Ranking of World Universities and all of these are in South Africa.
