EDUCATION SUPPLY WITHIN UNIVERSITIES: AN ORGANIZATIONAL ARCHITECTURE THEORY ANALYSIS

subject

description

We analyzed through this thesis the decisional process within universities that drives to the educational supply. In order to do so, we used a stakeholder view. Whereas value distribution process has an effect on the production process, the organizational context emphasises a peculiar dimension. The integration of various stakeholders allows to measure individual contributions on the value creation process, through the decisional process. We sought to justify the existence of the mechanisms of control within the universities starting from the study of the decisional rights and from their alienability. Those concepts allow to define organizational architecture through three dimensions: the distribution of the decision rights, the performance evaluation system, and the system of incentives. These problems find brief replies through four case studies of French universities, which enabled us to tend towards an analytical generalization.
