description This article analyzes several aspects about the concept of Institutional Isomorphism theory in order to find paths of reflection towards the alternatives for adopting and adapting the ISO 9000 normative on its IWA-2 version within the academic ambit. Institutional Isomorphism Theory and Neo-Institutionalism serve as theoretical frameworks in organizational studies in order to provide a consistentand appropriate base for studying the influence of environmental factors in the organizational function that somehow, motivates isomorphism. Based on this, we travel along the theory and types of isomorphism in which organizations succumb. Through the study of predominate isomorphic mechanisms, it is concluded that the contemporary university regulatory framework tends to pursue academic quality through the application of mimetic isomorphism.

En este trabajo se analizan aspectos de la teoría sobre el concepto de Isomorfismo Institucional, con miras a encontrar vías de reflexión frente a la alternativa de adopción y adaptación de la Norma ISO 9000, en su versión de IWA-2, en el ámbito académico. Se utiliza como marco teórico, por una parte, la teoría institucional y el neo-institucionalismo en los estudios organizacionales para proporcionar un marco conceptual consistente y apropiado para el estudio de la influencia de los factores del entorno en la función organizacional, que de alguna manera, impulsan el isomorfismo; sobre éste se hace un recorrido por la teoría y los tipos de isomorfismo en los que sucumben las organizaciones. A manera de conclusiones, se exponen algunas consideraciones que develan un marco normativo universitario institucionalizado que condiciona la búsqueda de referentes de calidad académica a través del isomorfismo mimético.
