dynamic DEA, network, higher educationAbstract
This research addresses from sociological approach of human capital where an analysis of efficiency of public universities in Mexico is presented using the dea methodology with a dynamic model and network structure. In order to identify the variables to be used in the model, factor analysis is used, operating the principal component method. Subsequently, the calculation of the latent dimensions and the sedimentation graph were carried out, where the presence of two components was present. After performing factor rotation, the variables were grouped naturally into two nodes: teaching and research. With the identification of these nodes, the inputs and outputs of the dynamic dea-network model could be grouped. The results show that the most efficient node was teaching.
