Abstract

An organization is broadly defined to be a formally co‐ordinated effort by groups of individuals to realize specific goals. A university, as an organization, can be distinguished from a wide range of business organizations and government agencies, both by the manner of co‐ordination and the goals of profession. Reviews some characteristics of university academic and administrative organizations in both Australia and China. Includes a comparative examination of supervising organs above the university; governing bodies within the university; teaching organizations of the university between Australia and China, and the classification of China′s universities.
