Purpose: Given the rapid and widespread changes in today's academic environment, universities are under increased pressure to ensure accountability, transparency, and conduct quality assessments while guaranteeing excellence. University governance, with benefits such as flexibility in securing financial resources, high-quality education and research, and the ability to attract top talent, can become a driving force for economic and social development in society. Therefore, this study aims to explore the themes of university governance.
Research Method: This study is a qualitative and applied research that utilizes the content analysis method, conducted using the MAXQDA software.
Findings: Research findings revealed over 150 initial codes related to university governance, which were classified into 26 sub-themes. Six themes pertained to the foundations or drivers of university governance, 12 themes were related to university governance context, and 8 themes were related to the outcomes of university governance.
Conclusion: Universities should make decision-making processes transparent and accountable through evaluation and monitoring mechanisms, while enhancing their independence by attracting financial resources and involving all stakeholders (students, professors, staff, and the community). The establishment of formal structures such as university councils, rule of law, fair distribution of resources, equity, balance, and capacity building through the improvement of the quality of education and research will contribute to the realization of university governance. The use of information technology and the utilization of digital systems, online platforms, and drivers will enhance outcomes such as increased educational equity, equal access to educational and informational resources, and participation in university educational and administrative processes.
