| Summary: | Since joining the Bologna process in
2005, the Armenian government and higher education
institutions have made significant progress in reforming the
higher education system. Despite reforms, the public
perception of higher education governance and management is
poor. Reasons for the poor public perception of higher
education governance are primarily embedded in system-wide
factors. Recent research has identified a governance
structure and regulatory framework as key to the development
of overall higher education systems. The study finds that
underperformance of the higher education system is
associated with a legal framework that lacks coherence and
the entire system lacks capacity to effectively exercise
autonomy and accountability. |
