Abstract

A comparative research study was undertaken on Quality Assurance Systems (QAS) in higher education in Egypt and the United Kingdom to identify different implementation mechanisms for quality assurance in higher education institutions. The principal data sources are based on document analyses about both Egyptian and the United Kingdom higher education institutions, quality assurance agencies, and governments. The findings showed slight variations in the scope of applying their Quality assurance system mechanisms in terms of their process, funding, Institutional autonomy, accountability, and, accordingly, universities' efficiency. This concludes that the reform that could contribute to the quality assurance system regarding funding, governance, and application in higher education in Egypt may lead to better higher education outcomes and institutional internal and external competitiveness.
