The book focuses on higher education governance and management in Africa. It is grounded in the existing studies on governance and management of higher education. It comprises four parts and 15 chapters. The themes in the book can be encapsulated into: (a) the relationship between the state and the university (or the steering models for higher education) in Africa; (b) internal university governance within the framework of the shared governance model, that is, a tripartite arrangement which comprises the corporate governance organ (the university council), the academic governance body (the university senate) and management; (c) internationalization of higher education in Africa; (d) quality assurance of higher education in Africa; (e) the third mission or the public service role of universities in Africa: (f) monitoring and evaluation of higher education; (f) external and internal higher education governance models; (g) and the regulatory agencies for higher education in Africa which has been triggered by the extension of the regulatory state into higher education.
