Project Summary
Because of globalization, standardization leading to accreditation of academic programs has become an increasingly dominant theme in higher education. In order to achieve it, there are various challenges faced by Asian partner country Higher Education Institutions, which resulted in creating the motivation towards undertaking this project. The partner countries face the challenge of strong competition with international institutions because of the easy and wide access to higher education abroad. The institutions can not delay any further to address it, otherwise they risk the severe issues of comparability of quality of education locally and abroad, and other issues relating to recognition of qualification. Moreover, the increased proportion of students entering university-level education has increased the complexity of higher education systems across the entire partner countries, thereby also giving rise to the need of standardization and accreditation. In spite of huge student population in Asia, unfortunately very few universities from Asia are seen in good positions in global world ranking of universities.
