Abstract

The effectiveness of the higher educational institutions work is currently being given greater priority. Every year, the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation carries out an appropriate monitoring upon seven indications, along with an internal evaluation of the universities work on an expanded list of indicators for the purpose of ranking the universities and their managers. In order to improve the effectiveness of educational activity of higher educational institutions, the possibility of creating and implementing specialized software tools for decision taking support is being considered ? in this regard, the problem is presented in the form of a multi-criteria optimization. The objective functions of the task are: to achieve the maximum possible number of performance monitoring indicators, to maximize the score based on the results of the internal evaluation of the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia and to minimize the financial costs of the university to change the indicators value. At the same time, there are some restrictions to the budget available to the university. The suggested mathematical model was tested on the data of the Southwest State University in 2017. The model empirically tested can determine the financial costs of the institution for raising such indicators of educational activity as the average score of the unified state exam of students admitted for the first year of study, the percent of foreign students, the proportion of the number of masters and graduate students in the total number of students, the percent of graduates? employment.
