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. 410 0$aPalgrave Studies in Excellence and Equity in Global Education,$x2947-5953 606 $aEducation, Higher 606 $aEducation and state 606 $aSchool management and organization 606 $aSchool management and organization 606 $aInternational education 606 $aComparative education 606 $aEducational tests and measurements 606 $aHigher Education 606 $aEducational Policy and Politics 606 $aOrganization and Leadership 606 $aInternational and Comparative Education 606 $aAssessment and Testing 615 0$aEducation, Higher. 615 0$aEducation and state. 615 0$aSchool management and organization. 615 0$aSchool management and organization. 615 0$aInternational education. 615 0$aComparative education. 615 0$aEducational tests and measurements. 615 14$aHigher Education. 615 24$aEducational Policy and Politics. 615 24$aOrganization and Leadership. 615 24$aInternational and Comparative Education. 615 24$aAssessment and Testing. 676 $a306.432 702 $aShah$b Mahsood$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aMcKay$b Jade$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299507503321 996 $aAchieving Equity and Quality in Higher Education$92522088 997 $aUNINA
