Knowledge Sharing in Public Research Universities

Abstract Knowledge sharing is an important driver of innovation, cooperation, and excellence in higher education institutions. This study aims to investigate the factors that influence KS in public research universities in Ethiopia. Using a quantitative research approach, data were collected from faculty members in selected universities in Ethiopia. Smart PLS-SEM was employed to examine the relationship between predictors and KS. This study contributes to the literature on KS by providing empirical findings on the factors influencing KS in higher education in Ethiopia and their practical implications for policymakers and university officials seeking to promote cooperation and learning in their institutions.
