摘要:The evaluation of graduate courses is revealed as one of the most important areas for the application of data envelopment analysis (DEA). However, to use this method it is necessary to select the set of variables: the inputs and outputs as a basis for application of the method. In Brazil, the entity responsible for evaluating postgraduate courses is the CAPES (Higher Education Personnel Improvement Coordination), whose assessment is based on grading that can vary from 1 to 5 (in the case where there is only the master) or 7 (when IES presents the doctoral program). Given the real need to check the efficiency of the engineering III postgraduate programs. This article suggests the use of DEA based on the criteria defined by CAPES. They identify situations programs with high concept given by CAPES appearing with low efficiency.
