The article is aimed at revealing the state of the institutional system of higher education in Ukraine in the context of the coronavirus pandemic by using the category of institutional capacity. To this end, the following methodological achievements of economic research are used: the unity of logical and historical, normative and positive analysis; institutional and evolutionary approach; logical modeling; behavioral economics; and political markets theory. Based on the authors' definition of the institutional capacity concept, the main features of the institutional capacity of the higher education system are specified, namely: internal complementarity of the institutional system; its external complementarity; interlinking internal and external complementarity. The analysis shows that the Ukrainian higher education system is experiencing a deep multilevel crisis, the origins of which lie in the fact that the government lacks the following: a systemic vision of modern higher education problems; understanding of the close relationship between the level of state support and the dynamics of national competitiveness; absolute dominance of fiscal motivation over the strategic one while solving the problems of financing the needs of higher education. The results obtained provide an opportunity to further study the ways of inhibiting destructive processes, then neutralizing them and, finally, creating the preconditions to restore institutional capacity. The practical significance of the study lies in the fact that it enriches scientific ideas about the structure of the institutional system of higher education and, on this basis, helps to develop managerial decisions aimed at improving the efficiency of the system. The originality of the article is stipulated by using the institutional capacity category and the institutional complementarity concept to study the current state of higher education in Ukraine.

Purpose: The aim of this paper is to develop an entrepreneurial education model for implementation in the Namibian Higher Education system. Namibia, just like South Africa, has an objective to develop small, medium and micro enterprises to enhance economic growth and reduce unemployment. Development of such a model is supported by the government of Namibia. This paper investigates appropriate entrepreneurial education models used in South Africa for this purpose.Design/Methodology/Approach: This research is an exploratory research design based upon secondary data mainly provided by the Namibian Economic Policy Research Unit (NEPRU) that enabled the researcher to understand and identify the problems that Namibia encounter in their small business environment. Theories, as developed by the University of Pretoria based on entrepreneurial education, were explored and formed the base of the theory exploration. Findings : The researcher investigated an existing entrepreneurial education model being used for the South African context, as well as a comparison of two models, and an integrated model based on the cited models. These models are used to show the importance of such models and the need to develop one for Namibia. Implications: This paper presents a model that can solve the basic need expressed by the Namibian Higher Education System to find an appropriate model to implement. Originality/Value: This paper provides a foundation from which an entrepreneurial education model can be implemented and improved / customised for the Namibian context.

Globally, the developmental process primarily originates from creative and innovative thinking of an individual. Undoubtedly, higher education promotes the academic quality and research in a country. In order to disseminate knowledge to the aspirants in educational and research institutions, the information and technology has been put to use widely across the world. The digital transformation gained importance in the field of education to accelerate the wheels of world economy. During its period of transition, there are multifarious managerial issues. They ought to be tackled prudently by the government or policymakers. Otherwise, digital transformation in higher education can never be considered as a boom but bane. Hence, it necessitates an efficient management for yielding better fruits. The current study has been undertaken to examine the Indian digital initiatives in the higher education system, identify the crucial managerial issues, and suggest remedies for improvement of the Indian higher education system via digital transformation.

The transition to the knowledge economy focused attention on the higher education system development and its problems, and put the universities in the situation of competition for limited resources. Free and controlled competition brings a chain of interrelated, sometimes contradictory concepts applied to higher education as a socially significant area. The authors of this research article by means of conceptual analysis aim at identifying the relationship between the concepts of «competition», «competitiveness», «efficiency», and «cooperation» regarding the higher education system. Competition and cooperation are considered to be factors which increase the efficiency of universities’ functioning. At the same time, there are contradictions in the justifications for the need to create competitive conditions for universities and in the definitions of the concept of efficiency, University is understood to be a commercial organization, its indicators being locked in its internal environment, whereas its main functions (reproduction of intellectual capital, improving the quality of human resources, orientation to the needs of the labor market) come to be out of sight. No less limited is the concept of competition, which is represented through the index of monopolization, calculated mostly through the proportion of students enrolled, beyond taking into account the peculiarities of the Russian higher education system. However, the works on competition and financing draw attention to the public good created by universities, which is not always tangible and requires the financial participation of the government. Thus, the discussions on universities’ competition and effectiveness in the context of their association with the commercial sector omit a number of socially significant elements of higher education and science.

The policy paid special importance to the areas where the previous policy was lacking. The policy gave much attention towards the areas where it was felt that a change is necessary. But many areas where emphasis was necessary were not mentioned. The paper analyses the recommendation of NPE 1986 and 2016 in the field of higher education.

The purpose of this study is to provide an overview of changing patterns since the mid-1990s in the Korean government’s policies for internationalizing its higher education system. The study examines the driving forces behind the government’s internationalization policies for Korean higher education, how the internationalization process affected Korean higher education, the ways in which the government and higher education institutions responded, and the issues and challenges now arising from the internationalization of the Korean higher education system. The results indicate internationalization is already an integral part of mainstream higher education policies and programs in Korea and is increasingly perceived as a key tool for improving the quality of higher education. The study suggests that for Korea to more effectively cope with internationalization in the future, it must address the following key challenges: (a) establishing an effective quality assurance mechanism for cross-border educational activities; (b) redressing the government’s previous, overriding emphasis on the quantitative aspects of internationalization, at the expense of quality; and (c) maintaining a balance between the conflicting demands of competition and cooperation with other countries.
