Abstract

Purpose In an effort to position higher education institutions to survive in this fiercely competitive environment, the paper aims to identify the direct and indirect relationships between higher education institutional positioning and exogenous factors (student engagement, employability, technology adaptation, teaching quality, and moral values). Design/methodology/approach A cross-sectional data was collected from 1,015 students studying in the pre-final year of graduation or post-graduate course/program from various educational institutions that were shortlisted based on the Indian NAAC and NIRF rankings. Thereafter, robust assessment criteria of PLS-SEM were used for model assessment and computation of results. Findings The findings revealed that to develop the greatest platform for upcoming young talent, higher educational institutional positioning ought to be addressed as a priority, which in turn will result in better living standards for upcoming generations. Research limitations/implications Framing strategies for urban students can never match those living in rural areas, as they are deprived of money due to their level of upbringing from childhood, which creates a high difference in the psychological mindset of students while choosing a career path. Practical implications The higher positioning of educational institutions clearly reflects the authentic learning environment, with professionalism leading to better student engagement with best industry practice. Originality/value Research novelty is highlighted as a more focused and streamlined approach to students’ career development and institution branding by reanalyzing and grouping various concepts of institutional positioning into a single model.
创新学术理论和实践,加强机构定位
目的本文旨在确定高等教育机构定位与外生因素(学生参与度、就业能力、技术适应性、教学质量和道德价值观)之间的直接和间接关系,努力使高等教育机构在激烈的竞争环境中生存下来。设计/方法/途径本文收集了根据印度 NAAC 和 NIRF 排名入围的不同教育机构的 1 015 名毕业前或研究生课程/项目最后一年的学生的横截面数据。研究局限性/启示针对城市学生的框架策略永远无法与农村学生相提并论,因为他们从小受到的教育水平决定了他们在金钱方面的匮乏,这使得学生在选择职业道路时的心理心态存在很大差异。实践意义教育机构的较高定位清晰地反映了真实的学习环境,其专业性使学生更好地参与到最佳行业实践中。原创性/价值研究的新颖之处在于,通过重新分析和归纳机构定位的各种概念,将其整合为一个单一的模型,从而为学生的职业发展和机构品牌建设提供了一种更集中、更精简的方法。
