The Fourth Industrial Revolution refers to a period of technological transformations characterized by the emergence and integration of advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, virtual and augmented reality, big data, and robotics. This revolution, by influencing the boundaries between the real and virtual worlds, has brought about fundamental changes in industries, the economy, society, and particularly in educational systems. The rapid pace of these technological developments has created numerous challenges for educational systems -especially higher education- and has made it necessary to reconsider and quickly adapt educational systems to new technologies. This study was conducted with the aim of identifying the challenges of the Fourth Industrial Revolution in higher education. To achieve this aim, a qualitative approach and the systematic design of grounded theory at the conceptual ordering level were employed. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, which continued using a purposive sampling strategy until theoretical saturation was reached (22 interviews). Data analysis was performed using ATLAS.ti9 software and the first stage of Strauss and Corbin’s coding procedure. In the challenges section, 117 initial concepts were identified, which after comparison and integration, resulted in 19 subcategories. These subcategories were classified and presented in the form of five main categories: “managerial and infrastructural challenges,” “individual challenges,” “educational challenges,” “research challenges,” and “social and cultural challenges.”The findings indicate that, to effectively deal with these challenges, universities must adopt a comprehensive approach in which the development of technological infrastructure, empowerment of professors and students in digital skills and critical thinking, revision of curricula and assessment methods, and formulation of clear supportive and ethical policies are prioritized. Implementing such strategies can provide the basis for the effective use of new technologies and for improving the quality of higher education in the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
