Abstract

"The present work deals with the management experience at Rio de Janeiro State University– UERJ, where a new management and governance model was adopted in order to strengthen university autonomy. This new model has given rise to the expansion of universities’ responsibility and has reorganized management sectors in a process that involves the renewal of internal legislation with the view to regulate and guide the university's action in the process of knowledge transfer to society through services. The result of this new regulatory framework is the improvement and increase in the spectrum of partnerships between universities and governments, the strengthening of pre-existing partnerships, and, finally, the attribution of new responsibilities to the so-called supervisory units or “supervisory bodies of the central administration of the university”. Great part of the efforts aimed at rearticulating UERJ’s internal system points to the need to overcome the historical internal fragmentation, redirecting management to an articulated system which is able to reflect the political will of the authorities involved, in the sense of an autonomous and radical evolution of the institution's internal governance. It can be stated that the transformations seen at UERJ are part of a broader process inscribed in the scope of the current management strategies to bring universities closer to the demands of society. Its main characteristics are, as follow: the integration of disciplines and thematic areas that enhance knowledge in the face of regional development; the prioritization of partnerships with the public sector, the valuing of innovation and projects with the potential for technology transfer, the expansion of the role of universities to promote social and economic development of the territory; the strengthening of the role of universities for the planet sustainability; the financing associated with academic results (publications and students’ involvement), the sophistication of monitoring, management systems and their indicators; the encouragement of regional action and the implementation of correlated management and governance models. This work, therefore, presents a brief balance of this experience based on systematized data between 2020 and 2021."
扩大大学的作用以促进领土的社会和经济发展:里约热内卢州立大学的新管理范式
“目前的工作涉及里约热内卢州立大学的管理经验,该大学采用了一种新的管理和治理模式,以加强大学的自主权。这种新模式扩大了大学的责任,并在涉及更新内部立法的过程中改组了管理部门,以期规范和指导大学在通过服务向社会转移知识过程中的行动。这种新的管理框架的结果是,大学和政府之间的伙伴关系范围得到改善和增加,原有的伙伴关系得到加强,最后,所谓的监督单位或“大学中央管理的监督机构”被赋予了新的责任。旨在重新制订欧洲经委会内部制度的大部分努力指出,必须克服历史上的内部分裂,将管理工作重新导向一个能够反映有关当局政治意愿的明确制度,即该机构内部管理的自主和激进演变。可以说,在欧洲大学法学院看到的转变是当前管理战略范围内更广泛进程的一部分,目的是使大学更接近社会的需求。它的主要特点是:学科和专题领域的整合,面对区域发展增强知识;优先考虑与公共部门的伙伴关系,重视创新和具有技术转让潜力的项目,扩大大学在促进领土社会和经济发展方面的作用;加强大学对地球可持续性的作用;与学术成果(出版物和学生参与)有关的资金,监测、管理系统及其指标的复杂性;鼓励区域行动和实施相关的管理和治理模式。因此,这项工作基于2020年至2021年之间的系统化数据,对这一经验进行了简要的平衡。”
