Higher skills and the knowledge economy
the challenge of offshoring
Institutional Management in Higher Education
Recent economics literature on offshoring highlights the trend towards the relocation of high-skill jobs to emerging economies. This evolution presents a challenge to the established knowledge economy discourse on which the relationship between higher education, higher skills, higher productivity and higher incomes has been based.

The implications for higher education institutions are considered and three potential strategic responses are presented.
