الملخص الإنجليزي

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) model is a linear programming based technique for measuring the relative performance of organizational units.

A common measure for relative efficiency is weighted sum of outputs divided by weighted sum of inputs.

In this research, we present the mathematical background and characteristics of DEA model, and give a short case study on UNRWA-Gaza Training Center where we apply the DEA model to evaluate the relative efficiency of 8 technical diploma programs.

The technical efficiency and scale efficiency are also investigated.

Major Courses Hours per week, students per one instructor, allocated budget including consumable supply, minor and major equipment, software and other needed components and number of enrolled students are used for input data.

The number of graduates who work in related fields is used as output data.

These inputs and outputs are determined through a questionnaire survey for the total population of 8 technical diploma staff members.

The results show that the technical diploma programs with 100% aggregate efficiency is only one which is Business and Office Practice diploma program "BOP".

Four technical diploma programs, architecture engineering, banking, business and office practice and communication are technically efficient.

The aggregate inefficiency of banking, architecture engineering and communication is caused by scale efficiency.

The efficiency analysis not only provides an efficiency score for each technical diploma program but also how much and in what areas an inefficient unit needs to be improved in order to be efficient.

The results suggest that 4 technical diploma programs (Civil Engineering, Industrial Electronics, Graphic Design, and Programming & Database) need structural reform to improve their technical efficiency.
