Search engines such as, Scirus, Infomine, Refseek, TechXtra, PubMed, Catalaw, Google, Bing, and Yahoo, are presented with their usefulness and the disciplines in which they are used. Search Engines are very important for retrieving information and scholarly communication in achieving academic excellence as per the changing needs of users in Higher Education. Search engines create an environment whereby scholars and researchers can easily share, publish their research findings and be able to locate and also retrieve the required information. Thus, the paper explains the usefulness of SEs to the wider academic community that prepares academicians to face challenges in Higher Education.
