Higher education, tertiary or continuing education plays a necessary and an increasingly important role in human, social, and economic development. The role of higher education institutes (HEIs) in development is vital, but it is also complex, fluid and dynamic. HEIs exhibit numerous different capabilities and scope, and can affect processes of development both directly and indirectly through teaching, research and service. Furthermore, HEIs operate within different contexts in which they can play numerous roles and face various challenges. And while there are many challenges in providing adequate education in pursuit of certain goals, there are also promising improvements in higher education that increase the impact, quality and effectiveness of HEIs’ role in development and social change. Investment in education to increase economic growth, as one form of human development strategy, has gained economists‟ and policy makers‟ interest.

But for human accumulation, a country should invest more on education. Hence this paper is prepared based on the primary and secondary sources, which is focusing on higher education impact on socio-economic changes has been analyzed.
