Public universities, as a public non- profit organizations acquire funds from the state. The limited budgetary resources and the inadequacy of resources are problems for all countries. The efficiency and effectiveness of public universities is difficult to measure if they are viewed independently. In order, to identify the advantages and disadvantages, we compared with other similar institutions. We focused on comparing fourteen public universities from seven countries. In the theoretical part of the thesis, we investigate and present institutional frameworks of universities in Slovenia, Canada, Great Britain, Australia, United States of America, Singapore and Denmark. We examined the concepts of efficiency and effectiveness of the implementation of activities at public universities, in order to determine which are the main differences between the indicators. We have identified indicators for measuring internal and external effectiveness and efficiency of education. We have explored all publicly available reports of quality, annual and financial reports for each university separately. Below, we examine and compare the financial and non-financial data of selected countries. We calculated the financial and non- financial indicators for each university individually and find out which are the differences between the studied universities on the basis of these indicators. Based on the collected and calculated indicators, we finally assessed, which of choosen universities is the best. |
