Abstract

Management of Engineering Education Institutions through Objectional Process (MEEOP) is an effort to present a new management concept in the management of education institutions. It is founded at the basic realization that engineering education is dynamic, needs periodic overhaul in order to adapt to technological change, economic change and changes in societal needs. This raises questions of reviews of academic standards, financial prudence and assessment of the relative position among rival systems for the success of well qualified, skilled and trained manpower. The objective of the idea behind MEEOP is that managers are able to visualize the education institution as being composed of component systems that are dynamic with well-defined basic purposes or goals that are based on the institution overall goal. Because of this, they are able to effectively plan and execute to achieve results most economically
