KEY WORDS: higher education, managerial law, Deming’s theory, Greek university.

ABSTRACT:
In this paper a comparative approach between the laws of the Greek state concerning higher education and main managerial laws is attempted, trying to examine whether they can be applied, but also contribute to the improvement of the existing structure in Greek universities. An analysis of Greek laws that came into force in the last 30 years in order to improve higher education in Greece is initially attempted. These laws were introduced so as to improve higher education in Greece, but also to harmonize, quantitatively as well as qualitatively, with the wishes and needs of the employees involved, i.e. professors, students and administrative staff. In parallel, Deming’s theory is presented and examined as a one which focuses on improving business structures in companies and organizations.
