Abstract
Higher education throughout the world has recently experienced a quantitative expansion along with a diversification of institutions, structures, programs, and delivery modes. Increased market pressures and the imposition of more formal procedures and regulations have been imposed by governments seeking greater measures of control. These changes appear to have been motivated in part to require universities and other higher education institutions to compete at both the national and international level.
