Currently, the hostel life is so necessary for the students. During their higher studies, the students face a lot of problems of accommodation. After the solution of accommodation, the students face the issues in the hostels regarding their provided services. The data of students’ feedback is gathered from the Director MIS, MUET, Jamshoro by taking the sample of 60 students from each boy’s hostel. For analysis, we use the tool Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS V.16). This study revealed the analysis of two services, water supply and first aid in the seven boy’s hostels of MUET, Jamshoro. The null hypothesis is accepted for all hostels except Rashidi, Hyder Bux Jatoi and Shah Abdul Latif. These results determined the strong relationship between the services water supply and first aid. From this study, we suggest to authorities of the university management to provide the necessary betterment regarding the water supply and first aid facilities in Rashidi, Hyder Bux Jatoi and Shah Abdul Latif hostels.

In the study we present results of two research projects conducted simultaneously at the Faculty of Social Sciences, UWM in Olsztyn referring to the place digital technologies have in the learning processes in the opinions of Early Education students. The results show that the group of surveyed students might be situated on the borderline of digital natives and digital immigrants’ worlds. The conducted survey demonstrated limited trust to digital sources of knowledge amongst students and discrepancy between their personal experiences with using new technology, on a daily basis, and traditional ways of learning proposed by the University. The analysis of the case study indicated that for preparing future teachers to work with children (digital natives), it is important to organize a learning environment in which both worlds – digital and analogue – are connected.

BI is playing a major role in achieving competitive advantage in almost every sector of the market, and the higher education sector is no exception. Universities, in general, maintain huge databases comprising data of students, human resources, researches, facilities, and others. Data in these databases may contain decisive information for decision making. In this chapter we will describe a data mining approach as one of the business intelligence methodologies for possible use in higher education. The importance of the model arises from the reality that it starts from a system approach to university management, looking at the university as input, processing, output, and feedback, and then applies different business intelligence tools and methods to every part of the system in order to enhance the business decision making process. The chapter also shows an application of the suggested model on a real case study at the Arab International University.

This paper analyses the repercussions of the adoption of a corporative government model for professor work inside a higher education institute within the State of Pará, managerially organized as a university and belonging to Grupo Ser Educational S.A. since 2014. This case study adds to the analyses of report documents and of three semi-structured interviews with professors of the University of Amazônia/Ser Educacional to understand the changes that the selling of the university to the Grupo Ser Educacional brought to professor work, in terms of the learning activities, the work conditions, and the university management. The analyses reveal that incorporation of the professional management system guided by the model of corporative management brought changes in the pedagogical culture, collegiate management, and in the conditions of work. The results show conflict between the social and political roles of education, especially from the incorporation of a policy of austere pedagogical management, one in which the current corporate world demands from educational companies that use this model, characterized by the deep heteronomy of professor’s work, fragmentation and control of pedagogical work, as well as the impoverishment and loss of social recognition.

Management Accounting System

Readiness for change is currently one of the most critical challenges that universities, and the people managing them, face today. The effect of this is a significant rise in the demand for financial and nonfinancial information about the management processes of universities. In this context, a suitably adapted management accounting system whose task is to provide such details becomes the fundamental element necessary for the effective management of the university. The article aims to analyze the suitability of the management accounting system for the management of a higher education system on the example of the solution applied at the University of Lodz. Five qualitative research methods were used for its implementation: a literature analysis, participant observation, free interviews, structured interviews, and a case study. The article presents the key users’ opinions of the system on its usefulness in daily work, and it enumerates the benefits obtained by the University of Łódź thanks to the use of the system. It allowed us to formulate a conclusion about the applicability of this solution as an example of the creation of similar management accounting systems in other universities.

Successes And Failures

Can a school of ‘critical management studies’ survive in the context of a marketising university which relies heavily on business education for its income? This paper explores the case of a UK management school which attempted to do that and survived for 13 years with a clearly ‘critical’ project. As someone who worked in the school, but left some time ago, I evaluate its successes and failures, concluding that the radicalism of its research and publication strategy was not paralleled by an understanding of the politics of the institution and its environment. This led to a posture of ‘defensive isolation’ which ultimately made the school vulnerable to changes in the strategies of senior university management.
