Abstract
This study is a continuation of a previous work-in-progress extended abstract from ASEE 2023. This is a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) of Organizational Resilience (OR) in Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) context. The previous extended abstract study showed a gap in the literature; most work related to resilience in educational contexts was focused on an individual perspective. Meanwhile, literature expanded from the initial study has shown that, after COVID-19, there has been an increase in the role played by Organizational Resilience in educational contexts. Moreover, this study’s bibliometric information shows that OR analysis in HEIs is a trend of which researchers and HEI employees should be aware. This study follows the same methodology of Tranfield et al. (2003) used before. The findings were refined from the previous work, by enlarging the inclusion and exclusion criteria, while expanding the pool of databases used. Implications for engineering education relate to survivability experiences, unexpected shocks and decisions taken from other universities and educational institutions in general. Although not all literature explores engineering focused cases, the analysis of these experiences and decisions taken from literature can provide a guidance for survivability of engineering education institutions.
