Performance Research

Private and public universities all canvas to enroll learners targeting community as a source of students. The parents' and learners' choice to join universities is guided by knowledge available on social media as universities are web-ranked depending on evaluation criteria of best performance. Research and publication is one of the three core activities that identify a university from other tertiary institutions after secondary education. The financial constraints in financing research for Masters and PhD students remain a drawback in implementing quality assurance policy in African universities. The major criteria used while evaluating best performing universities are: teaching, research, citation, industrial income, and international outlook. Research takes equal percentage weight as teaching in universities' web ranking. This chapter explores the possibility of financing research and publications in promoting quality assurance system, a global marketing strategy for universities.

System Data

LPMPP function as an institution that is fully responsible for the implementation of quality assurance mechanisms that have been established based PPEPP Internal Quality Assurance System (SPMI) as determined by UM Bengkulu. In fact, LPMPP has yet to have an information system website that provides all the information needed for applications for re-accreditation of tertiary institutions and study programs. The provision of the website is expected to provide information about the activities that have been implemented by LPMPP with responsive displays that adapts to the screen size of the mobile phone. Website supported by the dynamic capabilities that can provide system data information is up to date.

This paper investigates quality assurance in Chinese higher education by looking at the Evaluation of the University Baccalaureate Programmes Project (EUBPP) conducted in China. It analyses factors that bring about tensions between policy and practice in this area through a study of two contrasting tertiary institutions. The results show that the aims of the EUBPP have been partly achieved through the interaction of policy-making and implementation. In the process, contextual factors connected to institutional status and stages of development have led to varying degrees of tension between policy and practices.
