Higher Education Quarterly (HEQ)
Journal Descriptions
Higher Education Quarterly is a longstanding, peer‑reviewed scholarly journal devoted to the study of higher education as a global academic and societal institution. First published in 1947, the journal provides rigorous empirical, conceptual, and theoretical research that illuminates the dynamics of higher education policy, practice, and institutional change. It publishes four issues per year, bringing together work that examines leadership and governance, academic careers and professions, quality assurance, student experiences, internationalization, funding, equity and access, and comparative analyses across diverse national systems. The journal serves an international audience of scholars, policymakers, and practitioners by presenting research that informs educational decision‑making and contributes to understanding the complex pressures shaping higher education in the 21st century. Its scope includes quantitative, qualitative, and mixed‑methods studies, systematic reviews, and policy analyses that contribute to theory, evidence‑based practice, and innovation in universities and related sectors. Published by Wiley on behalf of the Society for Research into Higher Education (SRHE), the journal maintains high editorial and peer‑review standards under the leadership of Dr. João M. Santos, supported by an international editorial board. Higher Education Quarterly is indexed in major academic databases and remains a key outlet for advancing knowledge and debate in higher education research globally.
