The Performance of Universities in North Rhine-Westphalia Comparison of a Distribution Solution and the Performance Criteria of a Data Envelopment Analysis The Performance of Universities in North Rhine-Westphalia Comparison of a Distribution Solution and the Performance Criteria of a Data Envelopment Analysis Günter Fandel, Hagen* A. Introduction In the last few years a variety of approaches have been developed for recording the efficiency and the success of universities (HIS 1997, A9/97 and A10/97; Wüstemann et al. 2000; Andersen et al. 2001; Ziegele 2001). The purpose of this is the distribution of funds among universities on the basis of performance and success. The present concept of budget distribution among universities in North Rhine-Westphalia allots correspondingly more funds to universities with higher numbers of students in the first four semesters and a larger number of academic personnel, with otherwise the same number of graduates, and to those with higher outside funding expenditure with otherwise the same number of doctorates (Fleischer 1997). This has the effect of rewarding poorer input-output shares, which is not exactly sensible from the aspect of the efficient output of services. In addition, the aggregation of figures over all subject groups in a university, i.e. by looking at their totality, hides the subject groups are characterised by the efficient output of services and those are not. The redistribution criteria that are used can be interpreted on the other hand as input or output variables and therefore be used as elements of a Data Envelopment Analysis. The different subject groups in universities in North Rhine-Westphalia, and the universities as a whole, can then be studied with regard to the relative efficiency of their output of services in this year on the basis of the same data material towards which the redistribution was oriented in 1997. These results of the efficiency analysis can then be compared directly with those of the redistribution, to examine how far the redistribution was economically rational, i.e. was in harmony with the performance criteria. * Prof. Dr. Günter Fandel, Lehrstuhl für Betriebswirtschaft, FernUniversität, Universitätsstraße 41, D-58084 Hagen. E-Mail: [email protected]. I would like to thank in particular my academic assistant Dipl.-Kfm. Steffen Blaga for his support for the calculations. 2 It is not intended to discuss further here the output of services by universities from a general theory of production aspect. This would go beyond the boundaries of the arguments in this paper. For analyses of this type from the aspect of content and perspective see Albach et al. (1978) and Fandel/Paff (2000) and the literature referred to there. B. Performance-oriented redistribution of funds for teaching and research among the universities in North Rhine-Westphalia I. Redistribution At the behest of the parliament of North Rhine-Westphalia the Ministry of Science and Research started a redistribution among the region's fifteen universities of part of the funds available for teaching and research on the basis of defined performance and success criteria. In 1997 the redistribution budget amounted to DM 148.58 million and was provided by the universities themselves from their own funds for the appropriate title groups for teaching and research. The criteria used as the basis for the distribution were different for the two areas of teaching and research. For teaching they were: (1) the shares of posts for academic personnel, (2) the shares of students in semesters 1 to 4; in deviation from this in the case of the FernUniversität in addition half of all part-time students in semesters 1 to 8, because, together with their occupations, they have double the standard length of study with half the study load, in comparison with full-time students, and (3) the shares of graduates, with the analogously modified conversion of the graduates in part-time degree courses at the FernUniversität as under (2), in the respective universities, whereby (a) to calculate the numbers or shares under (1) to (3) the subject groups Humanities and Social Sciences, Natural Sciences and Engineering Sciences were weighted in the ratio 2:5:5, and (b) the numbers or shares of graduates for the calculation under (3) were discounted in dependence on the length of time by which the graduates had exceeded the standard length of the degree course. 3 The following criteria were used for the redistribution to record performances and successes in research: (4) the shares of third-party funding and (5) the shares of doctorates in each university, whereby (c) a moving average for the last three years was determined for the shares of third-party funding under (4), and the subject groups Humanities and Social Sciences, Natural Sciences and Engineering Sciences were given a weighting of 7:2:1 for their third- party funding, and (d) the subject groups were given the weighting shown under (a) for the shares of doctorates. Medicine is not included in this redistribution, and also remains outside all further considerations. The data on (1) referred to the sum of the academic personnel in the universities over the years 1993 to 1995, ascertained in each case on 1 October in each of these years. The data for (2) were based on the surveys for winter semester 1995/96. The figures for (3) and (5) resulted from the sum of graduates and doctorates respectively over the examination years 1992 to 1994, and the three-year average of the actual expenses in the budget years 1992 to 1994 served to record the third-party funding under (4). The aim of the selected periods and data volumes was to minimise the annual randomness in the differences between the universities. The redistribution that was sketched above can be described using the data compiled in Table 1. Column 1 lists the universities in North Rhine-Westphalia included in the redistribution of funds for teaching and research, and they are numbered consecutively in Column 2 with i, i = 12,,...,15. Columns 3 to 7 contain the shares aij of the universities i in the redistribution cri- teria j, j = 12,,...,5, in accordance with the information provided in (1) to (5) and the supplementary explanations (a) to (d). Col. 8 shows the sum of the weighted shares 5 S Pi =⋅∑ g jia j, i =1,...,15, j1= for each university, which, as an aggregated percentage rate, was relevant for the target I distribution of funds B (Col. 9), which the universities provided from the budgets Bi of the actual distribution (Col. 11 total, percentages in Col. 10). If the shares aij in accordance with (1) 4 to (5) or (a) to (d) are specified, the aggregated percentage rates then only depend on which weightings g j are assigned to the redistribution criteria j, j =1,...,5, on the basis of higher- education policies. This allocation was the result of a negotiation process (Fandel/Gal 2001) between the universities and the ministry: max z(g) = ()z11(g),...,z 5(g) ' with 5 ⎛⎞I zii(g) =⋅ ⎜⎟∑ a jg jB −Bi , i =1,...,15, ⎝⎠j1= 5 ⎧⎫5 g ∈=G ⎨⎬g ∈IR 0 ≤g jj≤1, j =1,...,5 , and ∑ g =1 , ⎩ j1= ⎭ which resulted after several iterations in the weighting vector g ==(g15,...,g ) (0,2;0,2;0,35;0,2;0,05), as shown in the heading of Table 1 above Cols. 3 to 7. However, a certain amount of leeway is removed from this negotiation process if the curricular standard values under (a) favour the scientific and technical subject groups in such a way in four criteria that this cannot be compensated through the weightings under (c) for calculating the shares of outside funding. The gains and losses in the redistribution for the universities (difference between Cols. 9 and 11) are shown in Col. 13 and their changes with regard to the actual distribution can be read off in Col. 12. Particular attention in respect of the subsequent comparison with the efficiency results of the Data Envelopment Analysis should be directed here to the gains made by the universities of Bielefeld and Wuppertal and to the losses suffered by those in Cologne and Münster. 5 Table 1: Initial data in 1996 for the redistribution in 1997 (Fandel/Gal 2001) Criteria j Target distribution Actual distribution Gain/loss Positions Stud.

  • North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW) / India
    Page 1 of 13 Consulate General of India Frankfurt *** General and Bilateral Brief- North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW) / India North Rhine-Westphalia, commonly shortened to NRW is the most populous state of Germany, with a population of approximately 18 million, and the fourth largest by area. It was formed in 1946 as a merger of the provinces of North Rhine and Westphalia, both formerly parts of Prussia, and the Free State of Lippe. Its capital is Düsseldorf; the largest city is Cologne. Four of Germany's ten largest cities—Cologne, Düsseldorf, Dortmund, and Essen— are located within the state, as well as the second largest metropolitan area on the European continent, Rhine-Ruhr. NRW is a very diverse state, with vibrant business centers, bustling cities and peaceful natural landscapes. The state is home to one of the strongest industrial regions in the world and offers one of the most vibrant cultural landscapes in Europe. Salient Features 1. Geography: The state covers an area of 34,083 km2 and shares borders with Belgium in the southwest and the Netherlands in the west and northwest. It has borders with the German states of Lower Saxony to the north and northeast, Rhineland-Palatinate to the south and Hesse to the southeast. Thinking of North Rhine-Westphalia also means thinking of the big rivers, of the grassland, the forests, the lakes that stretch between the Eifel hills and the Teutoburg Forest range. The most important rivers flowing at least partially through North Rhine-Westphalia include: the Rhine, the Ruhr, the Ems, the Lippe, and the Weser.

On June 27, 1961, when I had newly declared my doctoral dissertation project to be the work of Behrens, Mies received me for an hour in his office at 230 East Ohio Street in Chicago. On 6 February 1964, after my return from doctoral research in Europe and the beginning of my career at MIT, Walter Gropius entertained me for a two-hour lunch at his favorite restaurant in Harvard Square in Cambridge, Massachusetts.The interviews were not recorded, but I did immediately write out my record of the discussions. Information from these interviews appears in my 1968 dissertation, much later published as Peter Behrens and a New Architecture for the Twentieth Century (Anderson 2000). The dissertation did not provide the opportunity to consider the whole of the interviews or entertain their content. Here, for the most part I will give an account of the interviews, though I will quote some parts of my notes where they best convey the thoughts of either Mies or Gropius in the interviews. Both Mies and Gropius offered views of Behrens’ career before the time they converged in Berlin (1907-08), thus providing an apt entry point into the interviews.

  • Gottfried Hagen, Reimchronik Der Stadt Köln, Unter Mitarbeit Von Manfred Groten
    Francia-Recensio 2010/2 Mittelalter – Moyen Âge (500–1500) Kurt Gärtner, Andrea Rapp, Désirée Welter (Hg.), Gottfried Hagen, Reimchronik der Stadt Köln, unter Mitarbeit von Manfred Groten. Historischer Kommentar von Thomas Bohn, Düsseldorf (Droste) 2008, 424 p. (Publikationen der Gesellschaft für Rheinische Geschichtskunde, 74), ISBN 978-3-770-7627-7, EUR 48,00. rezensiert von/compte rendu rédigé par Joseph P. Huffman, Grantham This most welcome volume had its origins in a 1994 summer seminar, which eventually resulted in a major interdisciplinary collaboration of history (the Historisches Archiv der Stadt Köln and the Gesellschaft für Rheinische Geschichtskunde: Prof. Dr. Manfred Groten) from Cologne and the University of Bonn and of German-language philology (Prof. Dr. Kurt Gärtner and project colleagues Dr. Thomas Bohn, Dr. Andrea Rapp, Désirée Welter) from the University of Trier (Sonderforschungsprojekt Westmitteldeutsche und ostfranzösische Urkunden- und Literatursprachen im 13. und 14. Jahrhundert under Gärtner’s direction). »Dat boich von der Stede Colne« was completed by Gottfried Hagen in the year 1271. After foregrounding his chronicle with a brief hagiographical narrative of the Christianization of Cologne (thereby framing the community as a sacred enterprise), Hagen chronicles the many political disputes and feuds between the citizenry of Cologne and archbishops Konrad of Hochstaden (1238–1261) and Engelbert II of Falkenstein (1261–1274) during the turbulent years 1252–1271. From the Battle of Frechen (1257) to Albertus Magnus’ peacemaking efforts (Kleiner Schied of 1252; Großer Schied of 1258), the Trinity Sunday battles at Alter Markt, Griechenmarkt, and in the Büttengasse (1265), the famous defense of the Ulrepforte (1268) and the imprisonments of Archbishop Engelbert to the final Charter of Reconciliation between archbishop and citizenry (1271), Hagen engagingly and passionately narrates these events all the while advocating for municipal interests in opposition to the ecclesiastical lordship of the archbishops.

The research in this article is centered on evaluating the social responses of living in Freiburg’s two recognized sustainable neighborhoods Rieselfeld and Vauban. The study focuses on the moti- vational factors that prompted todays residents of the two neighborhoods to move there in the first place, their level of satisfaction living there now, and their perceived social interactions and level of community engagement. Results show that satisfaction with living in a place and reinforcing its assets through social resiliency or livability can result in long- term community staying power. In general, there were few differences in preference ratings of physical and social assets between the two communities. The levels of importance of social factors contributing to place satisfaction and staying power were not significantly different in both neighborhoods.
