Higher Education Review (HER) Magazine came into existence to solve the need of the hour – a neutral medium that connects students, institutions and industry stalwarts. The HER Magazine began its journey by providing exactly what the community was looking for by amalgamating Engineering schools, Business school, Professors and Industry stalwarts. While the print edition of the magazine reachs its readers through bookstalls and stands, the same content reaches many eyes through the exclusive online portal www.theher.in

Published from Bangalore, India, Higher Education Review is an excellent platform for the students opting for higher education, fresh graduates looking for job opportunities, college directors and top professors to share their insights on what are the best strategies for providing top notch business and engineering education in India. The overwhelming feedbacks received from the institutes, industry professionals and all other stakeholders inspired HER to strive further. The numerous issues released till date have covered expert panels for their extra-ordinary efforts in developing the much-needed workforce for the country. At the same time, the magazine managed to bring viewpoints of more people from the industry and shared the teaching methodologies of many professors to its valuable readers. In a short period, HER Magazine has become a major medium that talks about the concerns in the education industry, the philosophy of various institutions, their expertise, what industry needs from the institutions; in a nutshell, a perfect resource for those 150 million people looking for the right information about the institutes. We hope to continue on our path in providing neutral information to the college communities and striving to connect the missing links within the education industry.
