Dr. Mujibul Hasan Siddiqui

Abstract :

The present paper highlights about the global perspective of higher education. Higher education has profoundly changed in the past two decades and those involved in the academic enterprise have yet to grapple with implications of these changes. Academic institutions and systems have faced pressures of increasing numbers of students and demographic changes demands for accountability, recons¬ideration of the social and economic role of higher education and the impact of new technologies. While academic systems function in a national environment, the challenges play themselves out on a global scale. We can learn much from both national experiences and international trends (Altbach & Davis, 1998). Information technology plays significant role in globalization of higher education. Some of the important issues can be be discussed for globalization of higher education like ,Education and work are interrelated, effects of poor initial schooling on the life of individual, impact of information and communication technology on teaching and learning in higher academic institutions, role of information technology in the communication, storage, and retrieval of knowledge, for example web-based information systems, mobility among the students at the international level, international links and cooperation through higher education, good analysis of teaching and research, world-wide privatization of higher education etc
