Abstract

The teaching management of higher education institutions (HEIs) has traditionally focused on processing compliance with regulated curricular conditions, rather than normalizing the learning and knowledge developed, to be transferred to society. The motivation of knowledge management in HEIs should be aimed at strengthening knowledge preservation strategies. In recent decades, this model has been a growing interest on the part of academics and academic institutions at the international level. The main objective of this study is to analyze research trends on knowledge management in HEIs worldwide during the period 1980-2019. Bibliometric techniques were applied to a sample of 1931 scientific journal articles selected from the Scopus database. The study documented a rapidly growing knowledge base, mostly written by academics located in developed societies. This chapter provides a point of reference for future research on this topic, as well as revealing the intellectual structure of this interdisciplinary field.
