Abstract: Corporatisation is a process of making a state body into an independent commercial company. This is often the first step in the process of privatisation in which the ownership of a former state body is transferred to the private individuals and institutional investors. This corporatisation has also entered into the Higher education System. This move towards the corporatisation of higher education assumes universities as being similar to large business organisations and therefore being capable of being run as businesses. Among these, it is observed that the growth trend for private institutions of higher education is increasing. This leads to the fact that higher education necessitates attention to its basic purpose of teaching, research and dissemination as well as the overall management at macro and micro level. In the above context, the authors explain the process of corporatisation as it occurs in the field of higher education. Consequent to the corporatisation, its effect will be observed in three critical areas: curriculum and courses; research and management.
Keywords: Corporatisation, Higher Education.
