چکیده

تلفیق ابعاد مدیریت سبز در ساختار دانشگاه تبدیل به موضوعی کلیدی در هدایت جامعه و دانشگاه به‌سوی دستیابی به اهداف توسعه‌ی پایدار شده است. ازاین‌رو، تعیین وضعیت کنونی مدیریت سبز در دانشگاه و شناسایی پیش‌ران‌های آن می‌تواند به دانشگاه‌ها در توسعه‌ی فعالیت‌های مرتبط با مدیریت سبز یاری رساند؛ بنابراین، هدف این پژوهش در گام اول تعیین وضعیت شاخص‌های مدیریت سبز در دانشگاه رازی و سپس، شناسایی عامل‌های اثرگذار بر توسعه‌ی آن از دیدگاه کارکنان و اعضای هیأت علمی این دانشگاه بود (965 = N). بدین منظور، با استفاده از روش نمونه‌گیری طبقه‌ای انتساب متناسب (بر اساس جنسیت و سطح تحصیلات) تعداد 250 تن به‌عنوان نمونه‌ آماری انتخاب شدند. ابزار گردآوری داده‌ها، پرسشنامه‌ای محقق ساخته بود که روایی و پایایی آن از طریق محاسبه‌ی «نسبت روایی محتوا»، میانگین واریانس استخراجی (AVE)، آلفای کرونباخ و ضریب پایایی ترکیبی (CR) تأیید شد. داده‌ها در محیط نرم‌افزارهای Smart-PLS و SPSS Win20 و با استفاده از تحلیل عاملی اکتشافی به روش تحلیل مؤلفه‌های اصلی و چرخش واریماکس تجزیه‌وتحلیل شدند. یافته‌ها نشان داد که تمرکز دانشگاه رازی بر ابعاد کاربری و ساختمان، زباله و بازیافت و آب و انرژی است. در مقابل، به ابعاد آموزشی و پژوهشی مدیریت سبز توجه کمتری داشته است. یافته‌های حاصل از تحلیل عاملی اکتشافی نشان داد که درمجموع هشت عامل بر توسعه‌ی فعالیت‌های مدیریت سبز در دانشگاه اثرگذارند و درمجموع 717/54 درصد از واریانس متغیرهای اثرگذار بر مدیریت سبز در دانشگاه رازی را تبیین می‌کنند. این عامل‌ها به ترتیب عبارت بودند از: 1. استراتژی و فرهنگ حاکم بر دانشگاه، 2. فشارهای محیطی (فشار قانونی، تقلیدی و اجتماع)، 3. آموزش و توانمندی‌های کنشگران دانشگاهی، 4. ارزش‌های کنشگران، 5. نگرش بهره‌برداران نسبت به مدیریت سبز، 6. همکاری‌های نهادی، 7. ارزیابی و گزارش‌دهی و 8. فرهنگ‌سازی.

چکیده [English]

University structure has become a key issue in leading the community and the university toward achieving the goals of  sustainable development. Therefore, determining the current state of GM in the universities and identifying its elements can help universities in developing activities related to GM. Hence, the purpose of this study is to determine the current indicators of GM at Razi University and then to identify the factors affecting its development from the perspective of staff and faculty members of this university (N = 965). therefor, using the proportional assignment sampling method (based on gender and degree), 250 individuals were selected as the statistical sample. The data collection tool was a researcher-made questionnaire which its validity and reliability was confirmed by calculating the "Content Validity Ratio", Average Variances Extracted (AVE), Composite Readability (CR), and Cronbach's alpha. Data were analyzed by using Smart-PLS and SPSSWin20 software. The findings show that Razi University focuses on land and building, waste and recycling, and water and energy dimensions of GM. In contrast, less attention has been paid to the educational and research dimensions. Findings from exploratory factor analysis showed that a total of eight factors effect the development of GM in the university which account for 54.717% of the total variables affecting GM in Razi University. These factors respectively were: 1) Strategy and university culture, 2) Environmental pressures (legal, imitation, and normative pressures), 3) Education and capabilities of academic actors, 4) Values of actors, 5) Attitudes of stakeholders towards GM, 6) Institutional cooperation, 7) Assessment and reporting, and 8) Culture making.
