UKF management follows from the articles of Act on Higher Education, internal UKF and faculty regulations, ordinances and
Rector´s decrees. UKF is a publicly funded and self-governed institution with its own legal status. UKF´s self-government is rooted in the Academic Community, which consists of academic staff, i.e. teachers, research workers and other UKF staff with university or high school education employed contractually for a specific weekly work time, and UKF students. Academic Senate, Rector, Scientific Board and Disciplinary Board are all bodies of academic self – government.

The Centre of Information and Communication Technologies (CICT) is a separate intra-university information workplace, which ensures the administration and management, functioning and development of computer networks inside the university, the faultless supervision of information systems at UKF, the ordinary service of PC: inventory at the rector´s office of UKF, etc. CICT is managed by the director. Each department inside of CICT is managed by the head of its department. Each department head beneath the director, while director answers to the rector of UKF. All agreements are approved by the rector of UKF on the basis of suggestion from the CICT director. The centre´s mission, organization structure and the relations of CICT are established in the CICT UKF Statute.

The University library has its fixed place in the structure of UKF. Library holdings include e.g. research reports, scientific journals, monographs, textbooks, diploma theses and dissertations, conference materials and proceedings, encyclopaedias, dictionaries, audio and video records, electronic documents.
