  Mobile learning (m-Learning) is considered to be one of the fastest growing
learning platforms. The immense interest in m-Learning is attributed to the
incredible rate of growth of mobile technology and its proliferation into every
aspect of modern life. Despite this, m-Learning has not experienced a similar
adoption rate in the education sector, chiefly higher education. Researchers
have attempted to explain this anomaly by conducting several studies in the
area. However, mostly the research in m-Learning is examined from the
perspective of the students and educators. In this research, it is contended
that there is a third important stakeholder group whose opinion is equally
important in determining the success of m-Learning: the university management.
Although diversified by nature, heads of departments, deans, and IT system
administrators are nevertheless considered members of any university
management. The results of the research show that university commitment to
m-Learning, university learning practices, and change management practices were
the factors critical to the success of m-Learning, from the university
management perspective.
