The global demand for higher education has been increasing all over the world and universities endeavor to reach international standards.
It has been discussed for a long time that it is crucial to restructure the existing higher education system in Turkey to achieve a competitive
position in global world. Within this scope, the new higher education act, on which studies have been going on for 1,5 years, has been
shaped and broached to stakeholders. The aim of this study is to evaluate the existing higher education system in Turkey within the frame
of the new higher education act studies. The weak points of the Law of Higher Education No. 2547 published in 1981, which cannot meet
the needs of today's higher education, will be compared to the new draft law for higher education.
