  • Volume 39, Issue 3
    Volume 39, Issue 3 Value Added of Universities: Evidence From Georgia Zurab Abramishvili David Tsirekidze International School of Economics at TSU (ISET) Edgeworth Economics Abstract In this paper we propose a quantitative measure of the value added of Georgian universities and their programs, and create a ranking based on that measure. We find that there is a large variation in the rankings of individual programs within universities. At the university level, a comparison with the only available comprehensive ranking reveals that a value added-based ranking can produce very different results from existing popular rankings. The opinions expressed herein do not necessarily represent the views of Edgeworth Economics or any other Edgeworth consultant. Nothing in this article should be construed as legal advice or a legal opinion, and readers should not act upon the information contained in this article without seeking the advice of legal counsel.

Submitted: February 17, 2019. Published: September 30, 2019. 1. Introduction For developing countries like Georgia, modernizing and improving the education system is of vital importance for long-term development. Fortunately, there are a number of university choices available to students when applying for undergraduate or graduate studies in Georgia. However, it is not always easy to find an objective measure that can be used to make thoughtful decisions about the relative performance of universities. Moreover, education policy makers in Georgia do not have universal, fair and objective sources upon which they can base decisions on how to distribute funding among public universities.
