Paper Abstract:	The main aim of the article is to determine the performance of M&A and its impact on higher educational system in Germany. This includes the literature review on the issue and analysis focused on M&A and its impact on higher education. Currently, there is no research that fully and logically investigates the subject. Especially, with the concentration of organizational analysis and wide dimensions, it is necessary to conduct valid research on the subject matter. In this research, the current situation of the society will be described without any interference. Therefore, this research can be considered as descriptive research. Also, since the questionnaire tool will be used in the field to measure research variables, research can be considered as survey and causal. The statistical population included all active institutions listed in Germany from 2020 to 2023. The sample consisted of blocked trading data related to mergers and acquisitions in the Germany. As a result, the final sample will include 100 listed M&A institutions, and SPSS software will be used to analyze descriptive and inferential statistics. In Germany, Mergers and acquisitions in the higher education area (including universities and institutions) have gained very wide dimensions, so that some consider it related to the macroeconomic field, in other words, when two institutions merge together, it affects not only their field of activity but also the entire educational system.
