Question for EA:
What type of enterprise architecture do we need to support the enterprise called higher education?
How do we achieve a balance between control and autonomy in universities which are attempting to be both efficient and innovative?
How should the university enterprise be managed? What system of governance should we have within a university to achieve the integration and coordination of different enterprise elements?
