Higher Education Quarterly URL FoR Code 1301 Affiliation Society for Research into Higher Education Publications per year 4 Scope and audience Higher Education Quarterly publishes articles concerned with policy, strategic management and ideas in higher education. A substantial part of its contents is concerned with reporting research findings in ways that bring out their relevance to senior managers and policy makers at institutional and national levels, and to academics who are not necessarily specialists in the academic study of higher education. 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. Guidelines for authors It is important that authors appreciate the international nature of the readership of Higher Education Quarterly. This has three implications. First, the paper has to be of interest to a broad readership, which means that (a) the paper draws on international examples, or (b) reports some international comparative research, or (c) if country specific, explains how developments in one country have been informed by international developments, or (d) how developments or research in one country has implications beyond its borders. The aim is to provide readers with information about and lessons from ideas and practices that are transportable from other contexts.
