الملخص الإنجليزي

Governance in higher education refers to the means by which higher education institutions are formally organized and managed, though often there is a distinction between definitions of management and governance, as shown below: Governance involves the responsibility for approving the mission and goals of the institution, the management of its resources, the approval of its policies and procedures; and an informed understanding of its programs and activities.

Management, in contrast, involves the responsibility for the effective operation of the institution and the achievement of its goals within the policies and procedures approved by the Board; the effective use of its resources, the active support and performance of teaching, research and services; the maintenance of the highest standards of scholarly integrity and professional performance.

The purpose of this research paper is to examine the concept of university governance, with emphasis on the major principles of effective university governance, and the problems that face university governance in developing countries in general and in the Arab World and Lebanon in particular.
