Abstract

Doctoral education, which is a crucial component of transnational higher education, should contribute to the development of national and international science. To get a better insight into the contributions of doctoral education to the literature, 266 dissertations completed in the fields of social sciences, humanities, and education at 12 Turkish state universities between 2014 and 2017 were analyzed with bibliometric analysis. The analysis indicated that the scientific articles generated from the dissertations and the citations to these articles were dominantly published and cited in national indexed journals, which means that the dissertations made more contributions to the national literature than international literature. It can be one of the indicators that display the impact of transnational higher education on these dissertations are quite limited in Turkey. Several suggestions were made for Turkish universities to make more contributions to transnational higher education through doctoral education.
