| Abstract: | Higher Educational Institutions (HEIs) are vital contributors to achieving the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It is essential in meeting sustainable development challenges, including educating excellent teachers, producing ground-breaking research, and connecting services to communities. This research aims to explore the effects of forming a strategic alliance between two universities on facilitating the academic publication of SDG-related topics and determine the benefits of strategic alliances between HEIs. Data were collected from SciVal® for the period 2004 to 2020 to determine the numbers and percentages of joint authorship papers between the two universities related to the 16 SDGs and explore the growth trends in joint authorship publications on topics related to SDGs between the two case universities after their strategic alliance in 2012. Results showed that scholars from the two universities focused more on SDGs 2, 5, 7, 13 than the other goals. Regression analysis was also used to examine if the defined variables significantly affected the increase of joint authorship publications. The results showed that universities might benefit from the strategic alliance, bringing collaboration on SDG-related research. This research sheds light on strategic alliances between two institutions in Taiwan with different orientations, which can be used as a reference in higher education to promote sustainable development goals.
