Governance of Higher Education Institutions in Brazil: An Exploratory Study Based on Supply and Demand Conditions

This article aims to assess the context of Private Brazilian Higher Education Institutions comparing their supply and demand conditions. It adopts an inductive and exploratory methodological approach through the longitudinal analysis of data provided by the Census of Higher Education, between the years of 2008 and 2013, and the Demographic Census of 2010, in order to map its scenario. Its contribution shall enable higher education institutions (HEI) to identify new target groups as potential entrants, enhance the discussion of forms and mechanisms of governance models and deliver strategic information.
