Governança de TI nas universidades federais brasileiras: uma abordagem integrada

This research has as an objective to study the IT Governance in the Brazilian Federal Universities, discusses the relationships between the IT Governance (ITG) mechanisms and the noticed IT management development in those public institutions. The subject Information Technology Governance, is not only vast, but constitutes implications in most different operational and knowledge areas, being relevant to the Public Administration, as a part of Corporative Governance and the public related, evolves high investments, such as financial, structure and material and human resources. The universities are entities from Indirect Administration and essential actors in the knowledge developing and creating and on its managers. Theirs public administrative agents, responds for the managing public resources competence and to provide internal policy that determines how IT will allow a bigger alignment and reaching of institutions business. We highlight the role of universities that manage significant quantity of public resources to achieve its institutional purposes. Looking this way, this theoretical and empirical study has as its goal to design an ITG panorama in the Brazilian universities (67 universities), for the strategic alignment on governance actions and institutional development focusing on the efficiency of the public service offered by those institutions. Facing this research focus delimitation, the methodology process will evolve three investigative activities: (1) documental and bibliographical research, (2) questioning, and exploratory tool, to investigate the IT Governance and Management perception in the IFES, directed to IT executive responsible, as a data collection device and (3) research the availability of ITG information in institutes websites. This project contributes to the studies this subject; it investigates the relations that make the ITG as a business strategy and shows the implementation IT Governance, such as a tool to allow the viability of Corporate Governance. This way, expected to contributes to the Public Administration development, following the principle that to improve it’s needed diagnose, and then, offer better results to the society on this field of working.

A survey of the implementation status of environmental management systems in U.S. colleges and universities, and, An environmental management system implementation model for U.S. colleges and universities

A census of 925 U.S. colleges and universities offering masters and doctorate degrees was conducted in order to study the number of elements of an environmental management system as defined by ISO 14001 possessed by small, medium and large institutions. A 30% response rate was received with 273 responses included in the final data analysis. Overall, the number of ISO 14001 elements implemented among the 273 institutions ranged from 0 to 16, with a median of 12. There was no significant association between the number of elements implemented among institutions and the size of the institution (p = 0.18; Kruskal-Wallis test) or among USEPA regions (p = 0.12; Kruskal-Wallis test). The proportion of U.S. colleges and universities that reported having implemented a structured, comprehensive environmental management system, defined by answering yes to all 16 elements, was 10% (95% C.I. 6.6%–14.1%); however 38% (95% C.I. 32.0%–43.8%) reported that they had implemented a structured, comprehensive environmental management system, while 30.0% (95% C.I. 24.7%–35.9%) are planning to implement a comprehensive environmental management system within the next five years. Stratified analyses were performed by institution size, Carnegie Classification and job title. ^ The Osnabruck model, and another under development by the South Carolina Sustainable Universities Initiative, are the only two environmental management system models that have been proposed specifically for colleges and universities, although several guides are now available. The Environmental Management System Implementation Model for U.S. Colleges and Universities developed is an adaptation of the ISO 14001 standard and USEPA recommendations and has been tailored to U.S. colleges and universities for use in streamlining the implementation process. In using this implementation model created for the U.S. research and academic setting, it is hoped that these highly specialized institutions will be provided with a clearer and more cost-effective path towards the implementation of an EMS and greater compliance with local, state and federal environmental legislation. ^
