Higher Education Quarterly publishes international articles concerned with policy, strategic management and ideas in higher education. A substantial number of papers report research findings in ways that highlight their relevance to senior managers and policy makers at institutional, national and international levels, and to academics who are not necessarily specialists in the academic study of higher education. The journal places particular emphasis on comparative material as opposed to single institution or local case studies.Evaluations of the impact of policy at institutional, national or international level, backed up by research evidence, are welcome. Higher Education Quarterly also publishes papers that are not based on empirical research but give thoughtful academic analyses of significant policy, management or academic issues. The journal is receptive to critical, phenomenological and positivistic studies. It also welcomes studies that use hermeneutic, semiotic, ethnographic, historical or dialectical research, as well as the more traditional studies based on quantitative surveys and in-depth interviews and focus groups.Papers from countries other than the UK that highlight issues of international concern are welcomed.
