Abstract

The work aims to verify the management practices used by managers of the Federal University of Campina Grande, Campus Sousa. The first time a survey is made of the origin of universities, and its implementation in Brazil, at a next moment we looked at on the Public Administration and managerial practices that should be developed by managers. The research underlying this study was conducted through questionnaire applied to the managers of the institution studied, which were extracted and analyzed their results, quantitatively and qualitatively, and bibliographical survey, conducted in order to gather data on the subject. As the survey results, it was observed that the managers of this institution have the necessary knowledge about the functions of planning, organizing, directing and controlling, as well, running good management practices in his department, and to his subordinates, while not having full training in Administration. It was found that the institution there are flaws in the process and few inputs available that are necessary to assist managers in carrying out their activities. A possible responsible for these failures, may prove to be the state apparatus that governs this institution, which could provide the means and resources necessary for the effective implementation of the activities of these managers in all departments of the institution.
