MODEL FOR ANALYSIS OF THE QUALITY OF STUDY PROGRAMS AND THEIR CONTRIBUTION IN THE CAREER DEVELOPMENT OF STUDENTS IN SEEU - TETOVO

Abstract

Measuring and evaluating success is one of the main goals for the effective and efficient functioning of each organization. The performance of the organizations are measured and evaluated with the level of achievement of the desired results with using parameral and nonparametric techniques. The most used techniques in practice are the models of linear programming. DEA is a technique based on linear programming models and represent a nonparametric method used to detect the performance of production units that are subject to analysis and optimization. In the case of this research, this technique was used to measure the effectiveness of specific study programs, by choosing the appropriate input parameters that correspond to the input resources and output parameters that correspond to the results obtained with those resources. By presenting the obtained results and locating the ineffective elements that are integral part of the realization of the study programs, the possible reasons for their inefficiency are presented, and the guidelines for their optimization are given. The results obtained in this paper provide guidance on the possible changes that need to be introduced by the management of higher education institutions in the Republic of Macedonia.
