Abstract

Italian public universities are now paying close attention to performance measurement under the new public management process. This chapter aims to verify whether and how Italian public universities report the performance of activities in support of research, teaching and the “third mission”. Such can strongly impact how the university stakeholders will perceive the results of institutional operations. A documentary analysis of the Italian universities’ annual performance reports, for the years 2011–2014, was adopted to achieve this. The results show that further improvements can be made, especially in terms of outcomes, effectiveness, efficiency and coordination as far as the financial statements are concerned.
