Abstract | After many years of relative neglect, development agencies and national governments across the developing world are now considering renewing their financial commitment to tertiary education. As a result, questions about the ways that tertiary education can impact society have returned to the discourse. This article summarizes the findings of a recent rigorous review on the topic commissioned by the UK Department for International Development (DFID). The review highlights a number of important social functions of the university, many of which have not been sufficiently emphasized in debates around public funding for tertiary education.
