This article is a cut of a qualitative narrative sociocultural research, whose research context was a public higher education institution and as subjects the heads of didactic departments. The focus of the study presented here is the categorial dimension of university management. The objective of the study was to understand the process of development of university management. We emphasize that university management is constituted and driven by the biases of public policies, academic educational management, strategies and organizational, academic-administrative policies of the HEI, the bias management model conceived by the institution and the social, cultural and historical contextual bias. Thus, it is possible to affirm that to act as manager in an HEI implies in understanding the management processes, next, the way in which each one of these biases permeates the quotidian of the institution. University management requires going beyond administrative and bureaucratic actions, forming a process permeated by different elements that culminate in the maintenance of teaching and learning processes.Key-words: higher education; didactic department management; teacher manager; sociocultural narratives.
