Globalization has forced higher education into a new world, a world of change, instability and ambiguity, shaped by an increasingly integrated world economy, technology, an international knowledge network, and other forces beyond the control of higher education institutions. Futurists predict that the education systems of tomorrow will be drastically different from those of today. They forecast innovative approaches to teaching and learning will proliferate and will be used more effectively because of technology and telecommunications. Traditional universities historically have been producers of knowledge in the form of human capital, research, and scholarship and are now challenged to tap into the expanding need for lifelong learning. The need and desire for higher education are growing, but higher education is challenged to make significant changes driven by globalization and technology.

Global higher education is experiencing a myriad of challenges that impact the performance and application of education throughout the world. Globalization is a force that encompasses the virtual economy and how knowledge and information are shared and used. Higher education is seen as the primary vehicle for nations to improve the economic conditions for citizens in this new economy. Concurrently, technology has impacted the ability of higher education to respond the multiple difficulties of virtual learning, increased communication efficiency and how to respond to the anytime, anywhere learning demands. Global higher education continues to develop and evolve and global leaders should recognize the essential mission of global higher education to the creation, exchange and implementation of knowledge in a global marketplace.

The leadership needs to develop new organizational structures and systems that will promote and encourage quality learning and the ability to assess the impact of the teaching. Governments across the world have steadily minimized their support for public higher education, and costs associated with gaining a degree have increased constantly over the last decade. Most universities are forced to adopt a restructuring model for commoditizing education to make a profit from large numbers of students. The road ahead for higher education is filled with challenges, risks and uncertainties that begin with education being valued as more than a simple commodity: education becomes a public good. Higher education is increasingly viewed as a major instrument of economic development. In order to hold universities accountable despite limited governmental budgets, many nations have adopted performance-based university research funding strategies for targeted programs.
