Abstract :The study investigated the relationship between management efficiency and productivity of private universities in Somaliland/Somalia, by taking the case of Amoud University, Boroma. It is the source for higher level manpower for specialized sectors of a country. For this, it requires management efficiency: But productivity of private universities in Somaliland had been low. For example in Amoud University, no research was recorded since 2010 and the quality of graduates has been rated at about 48.96% while learning at the university is largely by rote. This called to question of the management efficiency. Guided by Max Weber Bureaucratic Theory. The study adopted quantitative research paradigm, using a cross sectional survey research design, on a stratified sample of 544 respondents of students, managers, administrators and teachers. Data was analyzed using regression. The study found that (a) management efficiency of Amoud University was poor, (b) productivity of Amoud University was low. The researcher recommends that (a) Amoud University develops clear control and guidelines for the minimum and maximum management efficiency (time, money, material and effort) (b) Amoud University reviews its curriculum and make more relevant teaching and learning methods (c) that Amoud University improves the emphasis and weight put on research and innovation.Keywords : management, efficiency, productivity, private universities
