L’atteinte de cet équilibre est vitale, non seulement pour leur propre avenir en tant qu’organisations, mais également pour les étudiants actuels et futurs, les acteurs universitaires et la société dans son ensemble. Cet article compare les études de cas de six grandes universitésdans cinq provinces canadiennes afin de mieux comprendre comment les universités et les systèmes d’enseignement supérieur parviennent à préserver une autonomie institutionnelle relative. Nos résultats suggèrent que les universités se situent à différents points sur un continuum autonomie/ contrôle étatique, mais aussi que toutes les universités sont assujetties à uncontrôle provincial accru.  \nIntroduction  \nUniversities have become one of the most important institutions in society. As Marginson (2015) has noted,“higher education has become an essential passport to full-time work and effective social status”(p. 11), and participation rates have increased throughout the world, with more than half of the traditional age cohort now enrolling in institutions of higher education in many countries, including Canada (Cantwell, Marginson, & Smolentseva, 2018) . In addition to universities’ educational function, enormous emphasis is now placed on university research in an era where knowledge production is linked to national economic development and innovation.  \nGiven their importance, there is an increasing interest in how universities can and should be governed (Austin & Jones, 2015) . How can public universities respond to the complex needs of their multiple stakeholders while at the same time retaining the independence needed to establish the necessary conditions for knowledge creation and dissemination? This question is particularly challenging for research universities, which “although powerful…are also fragile institutions, requiring autonomy, shared governance and academic freedom”(Altbach, 2015, p. 4) .  \nWe sought to contribute to the understanding of how higher education systems andi","cbCaisymez61hu5u","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisymez61hu5u","pdf",1003973,17,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n## Conceptual Foundation","[{\"question\":\"What overall pattern do the findings report regarding provincial oversight and autonomy?\",\"answer\":\"The universities appear at different points on a supervision/autonomy continuum, but all show greater provincial supervision over time.\"}]","Provincial Oversight and University Autonomy in Canada: Findings of a Comparative Study of Canadian University Governance | PDF",1792083713,43]
