The journal Högre utbildning (HU) celebrated its 10th anniversary in 2021. To mark the occasion, the editorial team conducted a review of contributions published between 2011 and 2021. This article presents the results of the review along with reflections on HU’s mission to promote the development of knowledge about higher education within a Swedish and Nordic context. Since its inception in 2011, HU has established itself as a key publishing channel for both academic studies on higher education and practice-oriented development projects focused on teaching and learning in higher education. During its first decade, the journal has published 142 contributions by 262 authors from a wide range of institutions and disciplinary backgrounds, reflecting HU’s broad target audience and multidisciplinary focus. The analysis reveals that the majority of contributions are written in Swedish and focus on teaching-related issues within the humanities, social sciences, and teacher education. The most commonly employed methods are qualitative studies and literature reviews, while mixed methods and systematic reviews are less frequent. Despite a growing number of publications and downloads, the review identifies a need for more contributions from fields such as natural sciences, technology, and health sciences/medicine. While HU maintains its Swedish and Nordic perspective, it is encouraging to note that the proportion of submissions written in English has increased. To foster critical reflections on issues in higher education, the journal introduced a new category in 2021, In-depth Discussions, which has resulted in several valuable contributions. HU’s flexible submission formats allow for both overarching and practice-focused issues concerning teachers and students to be highlighted. The journal has the potential to act as a bridge between different research fields and to help illuminate various contexts within the broad and complex landscape of higher education research.
