Description

Explore the transformative shift in UK higher education through this comprehensive analysis of marketisation trends. This Research into Higher Education volume examines how market mechanisms are increasingly replacing government steering in universities across the country. The book investigates the expansion of tuition fees, the transition from grants to student loans, and the proliferation of commercial rankings and league tables that shape institutional competition. It analyses how universities are investing heavily in marketing, branding, and customer service strategies in response to these market pressures. The UK serves as a particularly revealing case study of this global phenomenon, offering critical insights into the economic restructuring of higher education systems, the implications for institutional autonomy, and the broader consequences for students, academics, and society. Essential reading for education researchers, policymakers, administrators, and anyone concerned with understanding how market forces are reshaping universities and the higher education landscape.
