ABSTRACT

Autonomy in governance is an inevitable trend in universities. With this, the involvement of faculty members is essential. The landscape of the Vietnamese higher education system comprises a wide variety of institutional types, including National, Regional, Public, Non-public, and International Universities. This investigation aimed to understand the status of involvement by academic staff members, about its level and effectiveness, in the main areas of university governance such as institutional management, staffing, academic programs and research, and financial management, across university types.

The report was built on the data collected from a survey conducted at 17 universities of various types in Vietnam in 2018. Nearly 2,000 academic staff members provided their responses in a paper questionnaire.

The investigation results show a low level of participation by staff in university governance. The influences of staff participation were reported higher in staffing and academic areas than in organizational and financial. The investigation also identified the topics of further research.

摘要

治理自主是高校的必然趋势。因此，教师的参与是必不可少的。越南高等教育系统的格局包括各种各样的机构类型，包括国家大学、地区大学、公立大学、非公立大学和国际大学。这项调查旨在了解学术人员在大学治理的主要领域（如机构管理、人员配备、学术项目和研究以及财务管理）的参与状况、参与程度和有效性。

该报告基于 2018 年在越南 17 所不同类型大学进行的一项调查收集的数据。近 2,000 名学术人员在纸质问卷中提供了他们的回答。

调查结果显示，教职工参与大学治理的程度较低。据报道，员工参与的影响在人员配置和学术领域高于组织和财务领域。调查还确定了进一步研究的主题。
