This study aimed at investigating the practice of governance principles at the University of Science and Technology from the perspective of both administrative and academic leaders and the differences in the practice of governance principles in light of different variables such as sex, specialization, years of work and position. This study is limited only to the head office of the University of Science and Technology in Sana’a.
