Background and Objective: Higher education plays a major role in the social and economic progress of a country, and with the increasing demand for qualified and socially responsible individuals in the labor market, the role of higher education becomes more unique, and higher education institutions, including medical universities, are forced to seek their competitive advantages. The present study was conducted to examine the factors affecting the achievement of competitive advantages by medical universities.
Methods: This qualitative study consists of two methods of integrative review and thematic content analysis. In integrative review, studies about the factors affecting universities' achievement of competitive advantage were examined and an interview guide was developed according to the identified themes. In qualitative content analysis, semi-structured interviews were conducted with six experts in this field and the main themes were identified.
Findings: The results of integrating the themes obtained from the integrative review and thematic content analysis led to the identification of four main themes: intellectual and human capital, research and innovation, resources and infrastructure, and internationalization.
Conclusion: According to the results of this study, intellectual and human capital, research and innovation, resources and infrastructure, and internationalization are important components of medical universities achieving competitive advantage. These components can help health managers and policymakers by creating a framework or tool for collecting information about the status of medical universities.
Keywords: Competitive Advantages, Higher Education, Medical Sciences.
