Higher Education and Its Role for National Development. A Research Agenda with Bibliometric Analysis

Abstract

The primary goal of this study was to evaluate the literature on the function of higher education and extract significant insights using the VosViewer and Citespaces tools. The findings reveal that higher education is a substantial worry for scientists, particularly in 2015–2019. Furthermore, research indicates a significant body of knowledge on the function of higher education in national development related to human resources, economic growth, and other social issues. Finally, the research suggests strategies for promoting higher education’s involvement in meeting the demands of the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
