dc.description.abstractChaplaincy and the private university system in southwest Nigeria have been experiencing administrative conflict. Existing studies on conflict between chaplaincy and the university system have largely focussed on public universities with less emphasis on private universities in respect of strategic relationships that can be used to ameliorate administrative conflict between the chaplaincy and the university management. This study evaluated the relationship between Chaplaincy and management in selected faith based private universities in southwest Nigeria. This study aims to contribute to understanding how to curtail to an appreciable degree the various dimensions of administrative conflict between university chaplaincy and university management. The objectives of this study are to examine administrative conflicts between chaplaincy and university management in selected private universities in southwest Nigeria as well as examine how university management and chaplaincy contribute to the administrative conflict, examine the effects of administrative conflict between chaplaincy and university management and identify the strategies that can be employed to manage administrative conflict between chaplaincy and university management in selected private universities in southwest Nigeria. The structural functionalism theory of conflict management provided the framework of this study which was descriptive and purposive. Historical and descriptive survey designs were adopted. Two hundred and fifty (250) questionnaires copies were administered to respondents from five (5) selected private universities in southwest Nigeria, twenty-five (25) university administrators, fifty (50) administrative officers, fifty (50) students representative council members, twenty-five (25) chaplaincy council members, seventy five (75) chapel members and twenty-five (25) hostels officials. Quantitative data were analysed using descriptive statistics while qualitative data were content analysed severally. Several factors causing administrative conflict between chaplaincy and university management include amongst others, lethargy on the part of university management to implement disciplinary measures when due to erring students, role conflict dispositions, inadequate infrastructural facilities, poor managerial control over brewing crisis, poor communication and lack of effective collaboration between chaplaincy and university management. However, the study recommended an adequate, effective and collaborative leadership style that allows for the development of clear resource allocation policies and enhanced organizational culture.
