This article presents a theoretical institutional analysis and its contributions to the study of higher education. The first section establishes the theoretical principles guiding the old and new institutionalism, the most relevant contributions of each, and the differences among the concepts of institution, organization, and institutionalization. The second section provides an overview of the approaches and contributions of new institutionalism to the study of higher education, as well as a brief summary of the key studies in Mexico using this theoretical approach. Finally, a research program is proposed to address pending issues in the area of institutional and organizational studies of higher education in Mexico.
