This document discusses eGovernance and its implementation in a university setting. It defines eGovernance as using information and communication technology to assist with good governance. Universities are described as imparting higher education through affiliated or residential institutions. The university organization chart shows the hierarchy and divisions within a university, including faculties, libraries, hostels, laboratories, and a health center. Implementing eGovernance in a university would involve developing software and databases, digitizing records, designing websites, and linking departments and institutions using information and communication technologies. A case study is presented on implementing eGovernance specifically in a university health center.
