Knowledge management in higher education

Abstract This review article outlines the basic concepts of knowledge management (KM) in higher education (HE) institutes, and gives a summing up of previous scientific works to ensure providing an effective and efficient understanding of it for an ever-changing environment. KM is a systematic process by which knowledge needed for an organization to succeed is created, captured, shared and leveraged. Nowadays, the pace of evolution has entered a rapid speed, and those who can’t learn, adapt, and change from moment to moment simply won’t survive. Current HE institutes recognize their valuable intelligences and have adopted their changing role in a society.
