Abstract

The paper aimed to examine modifications and improvements in tertiary and language education institutions' (HEIs) interior governance during the previous ten years, ascertaining points of continuousness in Pakistan's policy and political atmosphere and points of variance.

Institutions’ interior governance provisions and engagements are offered within a contextual outline from Clarke’s empirical works of ground-breaking universities. The concluding unit of the paper contends for a re-interpretation and consolidation of interconnected arrangements of governance, employing models and patterns haggard from advanced private sector companies (PSCs) that can specify expedient guidelines for tertiary education institutions so that they are better fitted to face the lurking challenges and encounters of the current century. While the analysis is concentrated on Pakistan, the results are more extensively germane
