AERS: French university evaluations

In BOS: Model-based clustering of multivariate ordinal data relying on a stochastic binary search algorithm

Description

Created by the French programme law on research of 2006 and up and running since March 2007, the AERES (Evaluation Agency for Research and Higher Education) is tasked with evaluating research and higher education institutions, research organisations, research units, higher education programs and degrees and with approving their staff evaluation procedures. The evaluation is generally done on an ordinal scale, and the results are available on the agency website 5 . In the present study, the Bachelor's degrees evaluation of March 2011 for the 23 universities of the French academies of Bordeaux, Toulouse, Lyon, Montpellier, Greno- ble are analyzed. The universities have been evaluated through four criteria: programme leadership (pilot training, PT), educational project (EP), schemes for helping students to succeed (support success, SS), integration of graduates into the job market and continuation of chosen studies (employability and further studies, EFS).
