Across the world, higher education is witnessing exponential growth
in both student participation and types of educational providers.
One key phenomenon of this growth is an increase in student
diversity: governments are widening access to higher education for
students from traditionally underrepresented groups. However, this
raises questions about whether this rapid growth may in face
compromise academic quality. This book presents case studies of how
higher education institutions in diverse countries are maintaining
academic excellence while increasing the access and participation
of students from historically underrepresented backgrounds.
Including case studies spanning four continents, the authors and
editors examine whether increasing widening participation
positively impacts upon academic quality. This volume will be of
interest and value to students and scholars of global higher
education, representation and participation in education, and
quality in higher education.
