Dear Readers of the Journal of Higher Education,
The eight volume of our journal, which was published as one of the break-throughs of our country in the field of higher education that has the great-est changes and developments in the world, is beginning with this issue. We are happy and proud to reach today steadily with your interest and support. The number of manuscripts send to our journal, which has been indexed by TUBITAK ULAKBIM Turkish Social Sciences and Humanities Database (SBVT), ESCI (Emerging Sources Citation Index), EBSCOhost, EBSCO (Academic Search Complete), ASOS Index, and Google Scholar, has been increasing rapidly. In order to meet this increasing demand we have decided to extend the content of our journal.
We have increased the content of each issue and changed the structure of our Editorial Team with new members, and we have established the position of Editor-in-Chief in order to respond increasing workload in a timely manner.
New scientists have joined to the Advisory Board. We would like to thank all scientists, who are newcomers, already members and were former-ly members of the Advisory Board. We also would like to thank our esteemed colleagues who devotedly undertook the task of peer reviewing for the man-uscripts submitted to our journal.
While most of the manuscripts in the last volume of our journal are original empirical studies, there are also reviews, viewpoints, short reports and book reviews.
Together with this issue, the sections and the scope of our journal have been changed by adding new sections and fields, and the framework of the scope of education and training has been established. From now on, our jour-nal will also include research and other types of manuscripts in the fields in its scope and within the framework established. In this way, the journal will function more efficiently in accordance with the goal of creating a scientific platform, which was established during its foundation, to evaluate the essen-tial functional characteristics of higher education in Turkey and the world, to address similarities and differences among countries’ higher education sys-tems in terms of practice, to examine common problems and to suggest solu-tions for these problems, and in line with the objective of creating an aca-demic archive by contributing to the development of feasible, sustainable, innovative, entrepreneur and strategic approaches.
We are also making some efforts to start online manuscript submission and peer review system this year.
As in the past volumes, we would like to thank you for your interest and support for our journal as the readers, authors, peer reviewers, and the members of Advisory Board, and hope to see you in our new volumes.
Best regards, Editorial Board
