The research aimed to evaluate the design and implementation of higher education privatization policies. To this end, strategies, programs, and policies of this section (design and implementation) were received according to interviews and documents (literature and background), proposing strategies for each section. This review was conducted using laboratory method and semi-structured interviews applying thematic content analysis. In this regard, factors involved in the privatization of (design and implementation) of higher education in the world and Iran were recognized at first, which were then categorized in 22 areas and recommendations were provided for each factor. Following that, the requirements for privatization of higher education in Iran in the section of design and implementation were presented and placed in eight general areas. In compliance with any required section in the design and implementation (policy and strategic, legal, financial and economic, research and educational, management and organizational, social and cultural, infrastructural and communication requirements), a section was designed and implemented as executive corrective strategies and recommendations. In the next stage, barriers to the design and implementation of these sections were categorized into six fields (i.e., legal, economic, political, administrative structural, educational, and cultural and social barriers), and corrective strategies were recommended to deal with the mentioned barriers.
