 Changes in Chinese higher education: Financial trends in China, Hong Kong and TaiwanW. James Jacob, Ka Ho Mok, Sheng Yao Cheng and Weiyan Xiong International Journal of Educational Development, 2018, vol. 58, issue C, 64-85 Abstract: The cost of higher education (HE) continues to grow at an unsustainable rate in many country contexts, including in East Asia. With recent and projected HE growth in this region, HE administrators are increasingly faced with how best to provide cost-effective delivery while at the same time addressing how to meet workforce demands of increased quality, accountability, and international standards of excellence. In this article, we examine good and best practices of HE finance models in China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. A primary objective of this article is to highlight a select number of exemplary models of HE financing that can reduce or at least help level off this unsustainable trend. We conclude with recommendations to assist policy makers, government planners, and HE administrators in their attempts to meet the financial challenges of today and in the future.
