A COMPARATIVE STUDY FOR APPOINTMENT PROCEDURES OF UNIVERSITY PRESIDENTS
Journal Title: European Journal of Business and Social Sciences - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 8
Abstract
The administration structure plays a central role in the development of a university, both academically and administratively, and both for attracting qualified academic staff and students. The role of presidents (chancellors/rectors) and their selection procedures are crucial in the organizational structure of a university. Considering that selection processes provide critical clues about the democratic culture of institutions in the name of representativeness, accountability, transparency, and participation; the issue demands more attention since these values should constitute the fundamental basis of all universities. This study deals with this important aspect of the administration structure and aims to explore the selection procedures of university presidents in the United States and the United Kingdom, and then compare these procedures with the ones in Turkey, underlying the similarities and differences.
