APPLICATION OF DATA ENVELOPMENT ANALYSIS APPROACH FOR CURRENCY EDUCATION IN THE FACULTIES OF BUSHEHR PERSIAN GULF UNIVERSITY: A CASE STUD

 Evaluating the proficiency of universities, examining the causes of their efficiency and inefficiency are very important for revising inefficient units. In this research, for efficiency evaluation of the faculties of Persian Gulf University, data envelopment analysis approach and the ideal planning model are used. This method is one of the non-parametric techniques of operations research with a comprehensive and integrated view, which taking into account all the factors affecting the performance of units, it is possible to identify inefficient units. In general, it is difficult to evaluate universities and identify inefficient units due to the complexity and breadth of inputs and outputs using classical methods. Here, a case study has been conducted to evaluate the relative efficiency of the faculties of engineering, humanities, management and economics in the 99-98 academic year of Bushehr Persian Gulf University. First, by examining the background of similar research, inputs and outputs related to the performance of the faculties were identified. Then, by collecting the relevant data from the database of Persian Gulf University, field of mathematical modeling based on the data envelopment analysis approach was prepared with help of Lingo. The results indicate different levels of efficiency and superiority of the Faculty of Economics.
