This study discusses strategies for managing and developing higher education institutions in the Indonesia–Malaysia border region, particularly in Sambas Regency. The background of this study is based on the need to strengthen higher education institutions in the border region so that they are able to respond to local challenges and be globally competitive. The method used is field research conducted intensively to obtain direct data from the study subjects. The results of the study indicate that the management and development of higher education institutions are carried out through three main strategies. First, institutional transformation by encouraging massive changes in the form of higher education institutions towards a larger scale. Second, the establishment of strategies, policy directions, performance, and curriculum development that are responsive to the needs of the border community and in line with the vision of internationalization. Third, the sustainable strengthening of human resources with a focus on increasing the number of faculty members holding doctoral degrees. These findings, it is recommended that the Sambas State Polytechnic and IAIS Sambas be merged into the Sambas State University as a large higher education institution capable of competing and being on par with state universities in neighbouring countries, such as Malaysia.
