Abstract

Nowadays, many universities are employing metrics that are used by other countries as the focus moves towards academic management. A shared vision and collaboration is required to identify success cases. Leaders at senior and middle management need to be guided by a road map to get a clear vision, a list of different strategies and successful outcomes. Consequently, this article proposes an academic management strategy to guarantee student-centred education. This strategy has an emphasis on hierarchical process in layers, in order to optimise and achieve efficiency, reliability and resilience. In this paper, the “what”, “ how” and “where” are taken into account in order to respond to academic and administrative adjustments which are necessary to reduce the risk of investment in training and formation of human capital, which warns about the need to acquire knowledge, especially from countries with scientific expertise. It is also shown the indicators that motivate the effort based on the merit that human capital produces. A methodology of flipped learning or blended learning is applied to presume a human capital that is able to break down barriers, such as: English as a universal language. A bibliometric analysis has been based over 2000 scientific articles from the Web of Science and Scopus databases. So It was possible to identify countries, universities and researchers specifically for each area of knowledge based on the results of this analysis. Besides, university careers can even be validated according to the development and scientific interest that is presented by the bibliometric analysis, which could be compared with studies based on economics and wealth from sources such as Forbes.

Highlights

  • Academic Management and Strategic Planning have acquired relevance in HigherEducation in recent years, because of the imperative need to achieve quality, identity, sustainability and resilience within a competitive context in which both private and public universities have been operating

  • This is capable of promoting competences in terms of results, which implies the value of their contribution to society, which is reflected as a merit

  • It is able to encourage to the future generations who are joining in higher education, because it is a student-centred education, but there is no doubt that without human talent the region will not be able to achieve competitiveness for the labour market

Summary

Introduction

Because of the imperative need to achieve quality, identity, sustainability and resilience within a competitive context in which both private and public universities have been operating. It is required to verify where the prestigious universities in developed countries are moving to and identify the relevant researchers in the field of the most important axes of sustainable development indicators, by contrast with the region’s needs in education, health, agriculture, software development, science and technology These pillars are fundamental to improve a country’s economy by generating value-added services that are exportable. It has to propose and presents degree profiles that contribute to achieve a change in the productive matrix of a developing country It will not depend exclusively on the export of raw materials such as oil, copper, bananas, flowers; but, on the contrary, A country should evaluate undergraduate and postgraduate projects that take on the challenge of being proactive in the fields of medicine-health, agriculture, wearable technology, education, food, software development, as considered by [7,8]. The approach articulates three important aspects such as lifelong learning, merit-based growth, intellectual competencies which are transmitted in classroom environments, but it requires clear governance and prior technical analysis to identify the best institutions to achieve a fourth degree level or postdoctoral degree
