  3. The increase of HEIs is inadequate with its quality Globalization Internationalization Elite => Mass Introduction Set up QA system in HE society's interest in quality of HE The important role of HE

  4. Introduction (Cont.) The number of HEIs increasing public 338 (2012-2013) Non-public 83 (2012-2013)
