Abstract

Higher education institutions must engage students in active learning. This challenge requires changes in universities structure, governance and stakeholders relations. Particularly, it is the time to foster the creativity and innovation of student affairs. This study is an intervention research that focuses on developing the human potential and building the capacity of staff in order to align student affairs mission with the university social mission. The Socio-economic approach to management (SEAM) focuses on a holistic view and improves the performance of student affairs in order to intensify the office contribution to the fulfillment of the university social mission.
