Industry & Higher Education (IHE)

Industry & Higher Education serves as a leading platform for scholarship that investigates the interface between academic institutions and industry sectors. Since its inception in 1987, this peer-reviewed journal has explored how universities and colleges interact with businesses to foster innovation, support economic growth, and reshape educational goals around employability and societal needs. Its coverage includes the mechanisms and impacts of knowledge transfer, research commercialization, and university-industry training programs, along with the changing roles of higher education professionals in responding to industrial demands. Beyond practical case studies, the journal situates real-world cooperation within broader theoretical frameworks, challenging traditional assumptions about how educational institutions collaborate with external organizations. Research in its pages often addresses entrepreneurial learning, the role of higher education in regional development, entrepreneurial ecosystems, and strategies for enhancing graduate skills. By combining rigorous empirical research with conceptual insights, Industry & Higher Education contributes to a deeper understanding of how academic and business communities can work together to produce meaningful outcomes for students, firms, and society. With its international editorial base and multidisciplinary approach, the journal remains relevant to scholars, university leaders, policymakers and industry stakeholders alike.
