摘要：Differences between two types of organisational cultures ¨C American
and American-based universities ¨C were studied in Lebanon. American and
American-based universities are American in both academic and administrative
structures. American universities operate in Lebanon; however they are subject to
the laws of the State of New York, particularly in terms of the management of the
institution. American-based universities are local entities subject to rules and
regulations delegated through the Near East church authorities. In both types of
organisations, academics share exactly the same values, beliefs and assumptions.
American higher education organisations exhibit greater cohesive administrative
and academic cultures than the American-based institutes (Nauffal, 2005). The
study highlights the differences between the two institutional types in relation to
student perceptions of quality and satisfaction with their overall educational
experience, such as teaching and learning experiences, and quality of services and
facilities.
