Using Data Envelopment Analysis to Measure the Efficiency of the Scientific Departments of some faculties at University Of Anbar

Abstract

        Measuring the efficiency of educational institutions has become a necessity because the success of any institution depends on taking the suitable decision at the suitable time, and that the evaluation process contributes significantly and effectively to decision-making by building and using quantitative indicators. Our research came as an attempt to find out the level of performance of the scientific departments at the University of Anbar and the extent to which they exploit their resources to achieve the outputs by using the data envelope analysis technique (DEA) to measure the efficiency of the constant and variable volume return  and volumetric efficiency of the departments and to know the efficient departments and those that did not achieve full efficiency, and the necessary reforms measures to improve their performance by identifying references Providing metrics to evaluate the efficiency of resources (inputs) to achieve goals (outputs) or how to measure efficiency.
