The aim of this study is present the harmonisation of strategic educational management practices in the integration of knowledge management, science, technology and innovation in higher education.This strategic approach is currently being introduced into the management of many Ecuadorian universities. As it is continually gaining strength, it also requires continuous improvement. To meet these new requirements demands promoting knowledge generation, increasing scientific leadership of the country and its institutions, and encouraging the generation of new opportunities for university management or strategic direction that gives prominence to one of its main components: strategic planning.
