Title: National Policy-Making for Higher Education.
Abstract: Nationa! Policy~making for Higher Education Nearly all higher education institutions in Australia, the universities and colleges of advanced education, are public institutions established by governments, Most of them were established by State governments, but all are almost entirely supported by the Commonwealth Government. As Commonwealth involvement has increased, so has the extent of national-level policy formation. Universities were the first educational sector for which nationallevel policies were regularly and systematically formulated. To a lesser extent, national policies have subsequently been formulated for advanced education, technical and further education, and school-level education. Since governments have the legislative and financial powers over higher education, they have dominated policy-making at the macro levels, and this paper will be largely devoted to an examination of this dominance.
