Description

Explore the massive transformation of higher education across the Arabian Peninsula with this academic study from Routledge. This book examines the rapid shift from 1990 to 2015, a period where the landscape moved from fewer than ten public universities to over one hundred diverse institutions. Readers will gain insight into how these institutions evolved from sex-segregated, Arabic-language settings for national citizens into a modern system of public, semi-public, and private colleges. The text tracks the movement toward English-language instruction and the opening of academic opportunities to expatriates. As a part of the Routledge Advances in Middle East and Islamic Studies series, this work provides a detailed look at globalization and the institutional viability of universities in the Gulf region. It is an essential resource for those studying the economic and social history of higher education in the Middle East.
