About the Book

This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the concept and practice of Knowledge Audit in higher education institutions. With increasing emphasis on quality assurance, accountability, and academic excellence, knowledge auditing has emerged as an effective tool for evaluating the efficiency and effectiveness of universities, colleges, and research organizations.

Drawing upon the author's extensive research experience, including work conducted under a UGC Emeritus Fellowship Project, the book explains the theoretical foundations, significance, benefits, and practical methodologies of knowledge auditing. It presents systematic approaches for evaluating university departments, teaching and learning processes, faculty performance, research quality, and both tacit and explicit knowledge assets within educational institutions.

The book also addresses broader organizational aspects such as administration, finance, academic resources, and institutional knowledge management. Written in a clear and reader-friendly style, it offers practical guidance for assessing academic quality and organizational effectiveness. It is particularly valuable for university administrators, department heads, teachers, research scholars, librarians, information professionals, and students interested in quality assessment and knowledge management.

An important resource for higher education institutions seeking to enhance teaching standards, research productivity, and overall organizational performance through evidence-based evaluation and knowledge management practices.
