Abstract

Theoretical roots of higher education institutions (HEIs) and Stakeholder Analysis date back to mid-1990s and research was focussed on the role of HEIs in society and sustainable development. While various studies have been published about ‘triple-helix model’ - bringing government, academia, and industry closer, the concept of HEIs and Stakeholder Analysis needs a comprehensive review of the work carried out till date. Bibliometric and content analyses were performed, incorporating citations from Scopus’ database during last 25 years. Thematic mapping was carried out and evolving trends were identified. Findings and analysis of this research disclosed that during the last 25 years there has been a growing interest among scholars towards Stakeholder Analysis and HEIs. It was also noted that majority of research pursuits concentrated in western countries such as USA and UK, while Africa, Asia and South America were under-represented. This work will not only lay a foundation for academics to carry out further research, but it will also give new insights to the policymakers which would enable them to device strategies aiming at enhanced participation of universities/HEIs in the local, regional, and national development.

高等教育机构与利益相关者分析:理论根源、主题发展与未来研究方向

高等教育机构(HEIs)和利益相关者分析的理论根源可以追溯到20世纪90年代中期，研究重点是高等教育机构在社会和可持续发展中的作用。虽然已经发表了各种关于“三螺旋模型”的研究-使政府，学术界和工业界更加紧密，但高等教育机构和利益相关者分析的概念需要对迄今为止所开展的工作进行全面审查。结合Scopus数据库近25年的引文，进行了文献计量学和内容分析。进行了专题绘图，并确定了不断变化的趋势。本研究的发现和分析表明，在过去的25年里，学者们对利益相关者分析和高等教育的兴趣越来越大。报告还指出，大多数研究活动集中在美国和英国等西方国家，而非洲、亚洲和南美洲的代表性不足。这项工作不仅将为学者开展进一步的研究奠定基础，而且还将为政策制定者提供新的见解，使他们能够制定旨在加强大学/高等教育机构参与地方、区域和国家发展的战略。

期刊介绍： Industry and Higher Education focuses on the multifaceted and complex relationships between higher education institutions and business and industry. It looks in detail at the processes and enactments of academia-business cooperation as well as examining the significance of that cooperation in wider contexts, such as regional development, entrepreneurship and innovation ecosystems. While emphasizing the practical aspects of academia-business cooperation, IHE also locates practice in theoretical and research contexts, questioning received opinion and developing our understanding of what constitutes truly effective cooperation. Selected key topics Knowledge transfer - processes, mechanisms, successes and failures Research commercialization - from conception to product ''Graduate employability'' - definition, needs and methods Education for entrepreneurship - techniques, measurement and impact The role of the university in economic and social development The third mission and the entrepreneurial university Skills needs and the role of higher education Business-education partnerships for social and economic progress University-industry training and consultancy programmes Innovation networks and their role in furthering university-industry engagement
