Description
This book reviews and analyses higher education financing and explores the innovative ways by both public higher education and private higher education institutes in the context of globalization, with India, Russia and Tanzania as a case study. It examines the diverse policy discourses which greatly influence the higher education systems based on evidence-based research. This book is arranged into four major themes. Part 1 deals with the various possible modes of financing of higher education, such as the credit market and voucher system. Part 2 deals with strategies to mobilize the resources. Part 3 deals with innovative and sustainable approaches to financing private higher education institutions. Part 4 discusses the policies and limitations with external financing of higher education. It is an interesting collection of various themes in different chapters by serious researchers. It is an excellent read for students, educators and policymakers interested in alternative and innovative practices in higher education financing. It is a highly informative book for researchers providing insights on how social and political dynamics impact higher education financing.
