Download Significance of Institutional Performance Factors in the Allocation of State Appropriations to Public Research Universities Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
There has been considerable discussion about the need for educational reform in higher education. The public's concerns about the quality of undergraduate education, affordability, inefficiencies within the higher education system, and poor performance outcomes of colleges and universities have spurred a new accountability movement. Since the early 1990s, states have increasingly used performance funding models to improve colleges and universities' performance outcomes. Yet little empirical research has been conducted to see how effective performance based funding models are in increasing levels of institutional performance outcomes and state appropriation levels. The purpose of this study is to examine patterns of resource allocation among public research universities, to determine which performance factors have a significant relationship with receiving state appropriations and to examine how effective performance based funding models are in improving institutional outcomes compared to non-performance funding models. The significance of the study is that state resources affect public research universities in a number of critical ways both internally and externally, so explaining the variance between state funding levels of public research universities is a vital topic of research. The research design for this study involved using quantitative methods, including multivariate regression analysis. The dependent factor was state appropriations per full-time equivalent student and the independent factors were categorized into four specific areas of performance: economic development, academic quality, institutional efficiency, and access and affordability. Some of the most widely used performance factors were chosen, including: graduation rates, degrees conferred, and instructional cost. The study used multi-years of data collection from fiscal year 2002 to fiscal year 2005. A total of 102 public research universities were included in the national study. The findings showed that at least nine institutional performance factors are significant determinants of state appropriation, both positively and negatively affecting public research universities' state funding. Furthermore, the results show that performance factors may be used to predict state funding levels. Over 42.9% of the variation can be explained by the regression model using only performance factors to predict state appropriations. The findings also suggest that non-performance funded public research universities outperformed performance funded public research universities on several factors and received greater state appropriations from their states than their performance based counterparts.

Download Financing Public Universities Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
This crucial book addresses newer practices of resource allocation which tie university funding to indicators of performance. It covers the evolvement of mass higher education and the associated curtailment of funding, the public management reform debate within which performance-based budgeting or funding evolved, and sketches alternative governance and management modes which can be used instead. Four appendices cover more technical matters.

Download International Experience in Developing the Financial Resources of Universities Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
This open access book aims to present the experiences and visions of several world university leaders, providing strategies and methods used to find various income sources for their institutions. The expansion of a university system requires a corresponding increase in funding. Consequently, university administrators all over the world are in a constant search for additional funds. If higher-level institutions are expected to deliver high-quality education and research, their sustainable funding is crucial to the development of the countries they serve. While governmental sources are a major part of the funding of most universities, economic downturns as in the case of the COVID-19 crisis may reduce governmental contributions in this and cause administrators to look for various alternative sources to help them compete in a global setting. This book offers valuable information and guidance to university leaders and administrators worldwide especially at a time when university budgets are under stress due to the COVID-19 pandemic with its dire financial and economic consequences.
