7.1.5 Improve financial management
The University will improve financial management by maintaining healthy finances,

streamlining processes through the introduction of cost-saving measures wherever
necessary, and ensuring achievement of on-time and unqualified financial

statements. To this end, UNAM will follow accepted financial administrative and
management best practices that will enable the institution to function within

budgetary constraints and ensure financing of critical operations, projects and
programmes.

7.1.6 Improve and strengthen ICT governance

ICT governance is a framework which ensures that the IT resources of an organization
are used in an effective way to full-fill stakeholder needs. Effective ICT governance

has a substantial impact on business alignment and risk management. Misalignment
can result in improper identification of sensitive data, critical services and

substandard security controls.

ICT governance extends the strategy throughout the organization and directs ICT
processes to ensure that technology aligns with objectives. Subsequently, the

Governance of Enterprise Information Technology will enable UNAM to take

advantage of opportunities and maximize the return on ICT investments.

7.2 Higher Education Graduate Employability

Higher education alumnae have developed the capacity to obtain and / or create

work. Furthermore, employability means that universities and employers have
supported the students’ knowledge, skills, attributes, reflective disposition and identify

what graduates need to succeed in the workforce. In this regard, higher education
graduate employability implies “a set of achievements, skills, understandings and

personal attributes that makes graduates more likely to gain employment and be
successful in their chosen occupations which benefits themselves, the workforce, the

community and the economy” (COL.2: 2016).
