Higher Education and Research in the Post-Knowledge Society : Scenarios for a Future World

Jacob, Merle LU ; Kearney, Mary-Louise and Meek, Vincent Lynn (2022)
Abstract
How will higher education and research evolve in the future to produce the high-level knowledge and skilled human capital which underpin sustainable societies?

This book explores challenges for the post-knowledge society and economy where major socio-economic change is occurring in tandem with advances in digital technologies. It brings together international authors to discuss scenarios against a background of transformation, including the fourth wave of globalization, demographic shifts, socio-economic inequality, and climate change. Policy-makers, institutional leaders, the academy, students, employers and society at large will find this book topical and thoughtful.
