dejavniki povpraševanja po visokošolskem izobraževanju v sloveniji = higher education demand factors in slovenia

This article deals with the higher education demand factors in Slovenia. We present an empirical application of the demand models, and based on the estimates of the models’ parameters, we develop the most appropriate empirical higher education demand model for Slovenia. The model includes socio-economic, demographic and institutional factors. We discovered an important role of scholarship management, material conditions and demographic processes. The results of the analysis confirm that private and public goals in the field of higher education interweave, which is a special challenge for the management of education.
