The future? A pay-your-own-way free-for-all

Article Abstract:

Scenario planning techniques can be used in higher education to help stakeholders prepare for the possibility that unlikely events can in future be realised. Future challenges to universities include the effect of information technology and changes in research. Universities will probably have to consider various possibilities in future to compete in higher education. Higher education is itself expected to emulate an open-market economy in line with Dearing's anticipated recommendations that funding be attached to students instead of institutions.
