“…A macro-level study in the Indian context highlighted the high correlation between industrialization and management institution counts in various states, leading to important conclusions about the trends for growth and spread of management institutes in the country (Khatun and Dar, 2019). A number of recent studies has shown the importance of higher education for building the country's human resources, as well as for economic progress, social upliftment and scientific progress (Chauhan and Pillai, 2013;Sahney, 2016;Yeravdekar and Behl, 2017).…”

PurposeKerala is one of India's most advanced states in human development and other social indices. This study aims to look at the management education scenario in Kerala from a macro-perspective and examines the existing trends, major issues and presents challenges facing the sector.Design/methodology/approachThe study is driven by previously unexplored secondary data published by India's apex technical education regulator–All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE). Qualitative and quantitative assessments are assimilated from the organization, dissection and categorization of unit-level data.FindingsBusiness schools (B-schools) in the state are facing acute distress in enrolments. There are intra-regional variations in institution count and occupancy rates. The vast majority of the institutions have no accreditation at all. The entire sector is facing a protracted decline.Research limitations/implicationsThe study has relied primarily on descriptive statistics considering a single discipline within the higher education sector in Kerala. Future studies should look at other disciplines (engineering, medicine) simultaneously. Use of statistical methods like panel data regression would be beneficial to find hidden trends in cross-sectional and longitudinal time-series data.Practical implicationsManagement education in Kerala is facing an existential crisis. This has implications for the state's economic development. The paper creates strong imperatives for government policymaking to forestall the complete decline of the sector.Social implicationsA highly literate state with advanced human development indices need not be a suitable location for building a knowledge-based economy. Government policy has strong implications for the development and sustenance of higher education. The relationship between government and business schools are symbiotic.Originality/valueThe paper maps the progression of B-schools from local to global. A typology of privately funded B-schools is proposed. The conceptual framework advanced in this study can contribute to further literature development. The suggested policy initiatives are applicable not only to Kerala but also to other tightly regulated markets.

“…Recently, China's curriculum for higher education must place greater emphasis on activity-based learning and practical projects, whereas the curriculum for senior higher education must emphasise subject depth, breadth of general knowledge, problemsolving skills, strong reasoning abilities, and precise comprehension. The Chinese government has initiated hundreds of development projects to increase the quality of higher education and the level of life for its citizens (Khatun andDar, 2019, Liu, 2019). The structure of observed learning outcomes may be used to curriculum design in terms of learning outcomes, which is important for generating constructive alignment and enhancing the nation's education quality (Chauhan and Pillai, 2013;Sahney, 2016;Yeravdekar and Behl, 2017).…”

This paper examines how China’s curriculum management system for higher education has been able to expand in a sustainable manner. This study examines a number of different facets of the Chinese curriculum management system for higher education as a means of doing a literature review. China, a country that is developing at a fast rate, is working hard to improve its education system. The country has to be rebuilt after a thirty-year battle that caused immeasurable pain. In order to meet the requirements of the nation, higher education is crucial. The framework of observed learning outcomes may be used to construct a curriculum that is centred on learning outcomes, hence improving the quality and alignment of national education. In the context of developing methodology, topic content, and course choices, curriculum designers assist education. In this period of fast change, there has been a growth in the number of curriculum authors who are concerned about pedagogy and curriculum. Most significantly, it gives curriculum developers access to data that is based on actual classroom experiences. The outcomes will be beneficial to both curriculum designers and college officials.

This research determines the sustainable development of the higher education curriculum management system in China. As a literature-based review paper, this study explores some insights into the Chinese higher education curriculum management system. China, a growing country, struggles to improve its education system. After a thirty-year war that caused immense misery, the nation must be rebuilt. Higher education is vital to meeting the nation’s demands. The structure of observed learning outcomes may be utilised to develop a curriculum around learning outcomes, boosting national education quality and alignment. Curriculum developers enable education within the evolving methodology, topic content, and course options. In this time of fast change, curriculum authors’ concerns about pedagogy and curriculum have grown. Most significantly, it offers curriculum developers experience-based classroom data. The findings will benefit curriculum developers and college administrators. Article visualizations:<img src="/-counters-/soc/0029/a.php" alt="Hit counter" />
