Eficiencia de la educación superior en Colombia: un análisis mediante fronteras
Efficiency of higher education in Colombia: An analysys through borders
Abstract (en)
This research evaluates the performance of Colombia’s Higher Education Institutions (HEI), by estimating a Production Possibility Frontier (PPF) which allows the evaluation of the relative efficiency and its determinants, external factors that can influence the quality of the education in Colombia are also measured. For this purpose, the methodology employed is the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and the Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA). Results suggest that variables such as the socio-economic status of students determines the quality of education. Additionally, it is found that the efficiency of HEI through DEA is, in average, 0.72, while done through SFA is 0.87Abstract (es)
