Higher Education in Ethiopia: Themes and Issues from an African Perspective de Wondwosen Tamrat

Higher Education in Ethiopia: Themes and Issues from an African Perspective: Global Perspectives on Higher Education, cartea 52

Autor Wondwosen Tamrat
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 23 mar 2022
This book examines the Ethiopian higher education sector through an exploration of its various dimensions, challenges and prospects. Albeit one of the largest systems in the continent, the sector has received little research attention in the past. The book bridges this gap by marshalling a variety of current themes and issues with their wider implications for continental and global higher education. The chapters are structured in such a way that general readers, professionals and students of higher education can have a good grasp of the Ethiopian higher education sector as a microcosm of the African higher education ecosystem.
