RESUMO:

This study aims to propose new approaches to efficiency evaluation based on Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and Malmquist Index so that government agencies can evaluate Brazilian higher education. Data from the National Federal Institutions that obtained grades at ENADE in every year from 2013 to 2016 were used to illustrate the application, which totaled 70 intuitions distributed in all macroregions of the country. This research considers a national scope of 70 Federal Institutes. Recent public policies promoted a significant campuses expansion over the country. Since public resources are involved, it is important to verify if Federal Institutions can provide a quality service corresponding to the investments made. Relative size is a distance-based analysis and comes from the evolution of DEA superefficiency and common weights models. In addition to these models, the dynamic DEA (DDEA), Malmquist Index and the classical models are applied, all considering both constant returns to scale and variable returns to scale. The educational process is evaluated through the interaction between three input variables (quantities of teachers, administrative staff and enrollments), an intermediate product (new admissions) and two outputs (number of students awarded certificates, and the average grades of the National Student Performance Exam - ENADE). The analysis covered two perspectives: annual performances and global regarding the triennial periods from 2013 to 2015, and from 2014 to 2016. The global perspective allows us to observe DMUs performance in relation to ENADE’s triennial cycle, which encompasses each year one of the three knowledge areas: Humanities, Health and Technology. In addition, when comparing models results, the dynamic modeling fitting is verified. The results indicate that the dynamic modeling promotes a more adequate educational system assessment and indicates through benchmark implementation how improvements can be achieved, promoting the culture of continuous improvement. The combination of the models discussed in this work widens the discussion about the best method of educational assessment since the presented models are not exclusive but complementary. These evaluation models have the potential to be applied to other education systems, with the inclusion of other variables and even in other countries.
