Studijní neúspěšnost z pohledu veřejných vysokých škol / Dropout in higher education from perspective of public universitiesRichterová, Kateřina January 2018 (has links)
This master thesis deals with the dropout in higher education at public universities in the Czech Republic. Main goal was to gain a perspective, how public universities look at the rising dropout, on which bases the attitudes of universities differ, how great attention the universities pay to dropout in their annual reports and long-term goals and which impact it has with respect to national and international policies. Answers to research questions were obtained firstly by analyzing of the secondary data (literature, research, public policy documents, annual reports and long-term goals of public universities) and secondly by analyzing of the primary data (expert semi-structured interviews with representatives of public universities, seminars on the dropout in higher education, internship at the Ministry of education, youth and sports). The outcome of the data analysis shows that dropout is a significant problem for the most of public universities because it has a growing trend year by year. Most of them see the dropout through the pragmatic perspective due to financing of public universities. Many others external and internal factors have impact on behavior and attitude towards to the dropout in higher education, yet pragmatic perspective seems to be essential.

An analysis of open access schorlarly communication Tanzanian public universitiesDulle, Wilson Frankwell 08 1900 (has links)
The aim of this study was to investigate factors affecting the adoption of open access
in research activities within Tanzanian public universities in order to device
mechanisms of enhancing the use of this mode of scholarly communication. The study
adopted the UTAUT model to formulate an open access research model comprising of
six constructs and five moderators for guidance of this investigation. A triangulation
approach for data gathering was adopted. In the first instance, a semi-structured
questionnaire was used to collect data from 398 respondents selected using the
stratified random sampling from a population of 1088 university researchers from six
public universities in Tanzania. The interview involving 63 policy makers and
structured records review were also conducted to complement the questionnaire
survey. The descriptive and binary logistic regression statistics of the Statistical
Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) were used for data analysis.
The study established that majority of the policy makers (90.5%) and researchers
(72.1%) were aware of open access. Attitude, awareness, effort expectancy, and
performance expectancy were established as the key determinants for researchers’
behavioural intention of open access usage while age, awareness, behavioural
intention, facilitating conditions and social influence were found to significantly affect
researchers’ actual usage of open access. It was concluded that researchers’ and
policy makers’ general perceptions about open access were very positive signifying
the acceptance of this mode of scholarly communication in the study area. Current
poor research conditions and researchers’ low Internet self-efficacy such as
inadequate information search and online publishing skills were cited as the main
hindrances for researchers to use open access in scholarly communication. The study
recommends institutionalisation of open access publishing in Tanzanian public
universities and other similar research institutions so as to improve the dissemination
of research output emanating from such institutions. Six areas for further research to
establish more insights regarding the feasibility for open access development in the
country are also recommended. / Information Science / D. Litt. Phil. (Information Science)

Faculty Research Productivity in Saudi Arabian Public Universities: A Human Capital Investment PerspectiveAlzuman, Abad 01 January 2015 (has links)
In an attempt to transition from its oil-based economy, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is taking further steps towards building a knowledge-based economy. Saudi universities play a pivotal role toward the country’s attempts to achieve the desired sustainable economic growth. And because knowledge production is dependent on the human capital embedded in faculty members working at theses universities, the recommendations of the Saudi National Science and Technology Policy stressed the importance of enhancing research skills of faculty members and researchers at public universities using different means and initiatives. However, a little is known about the impact of the implemented initiatives to promote research on the actual research outcomes of faculty members working at these universities. This study examined the impact of research promoting practices, and faculty personal characteristics (i.e., age, gender, marital status, academic rank, citizenship, and origin of PhD degree) on the levels of faculty
research productivity at four Saudi Arabian public universities: King Saud University (KSU), King Abdulaziz University (KAU), King Khalid University (KKU), and King Faisal University (KFU). All PhD holder faculty members working at these universities were included in the sample of the study. A self-administrate web-based survey questionnaire was used to collect data for this study. Out of 7072 distributed questionnaires, 389 answered questionnaires were used for the data analysis.
Multiple regression results revealed that the following research-promoting practices have positive and significant relationships with faculty research productivity: supportive collegial environment, the high perception of the academic editing and translating services, the positive perception of the research funding process, the rate of participation in collaboration programs, and conference attendance. Faculty’s perception of the role of research centers and research financial incentives revealed reverse relationships with certain types of faculty research productivity.
Among the personal characteristics of faculty members, full professors were found to have the highest levels of research productivity. Citizenship (tenure status), and origin of PhD degree were found to have positive relationships with certain types of faculty research productivity. Male faculty were found to have more publications in refereed journals compared to female faculty. Also, older faculty were found to have more publications in refereed journals compared to junior faculty.

Previous issue date: 2013-05-22 / This work intends to elaborate an analysis of the legal treatment about the support foundations of the Federal Institutions of Higher Education (IFES), highlighting its unique conformation among the entities of the Third Sector. It will be demonstrated his special approach to the legal public regime resulted from recent legislative changes introduced by Law No. 12,349, of 15/12/2010, which significantly changed the law of the support foundations, Law No. 8958 of 20/12/1994. The origin of the support foundations will be contextualized within the constant design of the government seeking in private entities the flexibility of administrative management for implementation of the tasks assigned to it. This runway to the private legal regime, sharply occurred after the 1990s by the introduction of management administration as government policy, will be addressed from the perspective of the federal public universities and university autonomy in administrative, financial and patrimonial aspects. The dependence between the support foundations and IFES supported and the usefulness of its partnerships especially in university extension activities will also be the subject of reflection in this work. We will develop our study from the history of public universities and the growth of the Third Sector after the 1990s, going to the evolution of the legislative associated with the precedents of the Court of Audit in Brazil (Tribunal de Contas da União). At the end, will be examined the vulnerabilities and strengths of the current legal arrangement provided by law for the relationship between support foundations and IFES supported / Pretendemos, com este trabalho, elaborar uma análise do regime jurídico das fundações de apoio às Instituições Federais de Ensino Superior (IFES), com destaque para sua singular conformação dentre os entes do Terceiro Setor. Será evidenciada sua especial aproximação ao regime jurídico público decorrente das recentes alterações legislativas promovidas pela Lei nº 12.349, de 15/12/2010, que modificaram significativamente o marco legal das fundações de apoio, a Lei nº 8.958, de 20/12/1994. A origem das fundações de apoio será contextualizada dentro do constante desígnio da Administração Pública em buscar nas entidades de direito privado a flexibilidade de gestão administrativa para execução das tarefas a que está incumbida. Esta fuga para o direito privado, acentuada após os anos 1990 pela introdução da administração gerencial como política de governo, será abordada sob a perspectiva das universidades públicas federais e a autonomia universitária de gestão administrativa, financeira e patrimonial. A dependência entre as fundações de apoio e as IFES apoiadas e a utilidade de suas parcerias especialmente nas atividades de extensão universitária também serão objeto de reflexão deste trabalho. Desenvolveremos nosso estudo a partir da história das universidades públicas e do crescimento do Terceiro Setor após os anos 1990, passando ao regime jurídico das fundações associado à evolução legislativa do tema e sua relação com a jurisprudência do Tribunal de Contas da União. Ao final, serão examinadas as vulnerabilidades e potencialidades do atual arranjo jurídico previsto em lei para o relacionamento entre fundações de apoio e IFES apoiadas

Dificuldades de alunos ingressantes na universidade pública: alguns indicadores para reflexões sobre a docência universitária / First-year students\' difficulties in public universities: signals of the need of reflections about university teaching.Belletati, Valéria Cordeiro Fernandes 21 June 2011 (has links)
A elitização da universidade pública brasileira é a preocupação central desta investigação. Com os programas de inclusão social, tem-se possibilitado maior representatividade de alunos em condições socioeconômicas desfavoráveis nestas instituições. Na Universidade de São Paulo USP, locus escolhido para esta pesquisa, o Programa de Inclusão Social INCLUSP, desde 2007, tem favorecido a entrada de alunos que cursaram todo o ensino médio em escolas públicas, majoritariamente constituída por alunos em condições menos favorecidas da sociedade brasileira. Teve-se como objetivo trazer elementos que possibilitassem pensar a docência universitária no sentido de favorecer trajetórias acadêmicas de sucesso destes alunos, entendidas como possibilidade de formação profissional, científica e política, função que atribuímos à universidade pública, que se entende concretizar-se na promoção do ensino profissional indissociado da pesquisa e da extensão. Para tanto, realizou-se a coleta de dados por meio de dois questionários abertos, respondidos por escrito pelos sujeitos, em momentos diversos. Com o primeiro questionário buscou-se identificar dificuldades de alunos ingressantes que cursaram todo o ensino médio comum em escolas públicas. Na segunda etapa, intentou-se perceber a permanência ou não das dificuldades apontadas no ano seguinte ao ingresso e a forma como os sujeitos lidavam com estas dificuldades. A coleta de dados ocorreu em três cursos da USP que apresentaram maiores índices de evasão de alunos que cursaram o ensino médio comum público, entendida como uma forma de exclusão. Foram identificadas como principais dificuldades acadêmicas, que se constituem em entraves a uma trajetória de sucesso: a exiguidade do tempo e sua má gestão; a opção por uma abordagem superficial de aprendizagem; a quantidade e complexidade dos conteúdos; o desânimo frente a situações de insucesso; dificuldades de convivência acadêmica. A partir do estudo foi possível apontar como demandas à docência a necessidade de reflexões sobre a função social da universidade e sobre a baixa representatividade de alunos em condições socioeconômicas desfavoráveis, especialmente, nos cursos mais prestigiados; identificar e refletir sobre as dificuldades dos ingressantes, tendo-se em conta a diversidade entre os cursos e entre os sujeitos-alunos; considerar aspectos relativos à gestão do tempo como conteúdos de ensino, versando sobre o como e o que estudar e aprender considerando que estes se encontram em processo de afiliação e de construção de novas formas de se relacionar com o saber; de repensar sobre as funções das atividades avaliativas, a organização do currículo e de atividades de aprendizagem e, a importância do professor criar possibilidades ou atividades que favoreçam a convivência acadêmica, contribuindo para integração e afiliação do ingressante. Tais demandas indicariam a necessidade de uma formação contínua de professores universitários, especialmente pela exigência de pouca ou nenhuma formação pedagógica para a docência neste nível de ensino, no sentido da formação de docentes reflexivos no âmbito do conceito de desenvolvimento profissional docente, favorecendo a constituição de bases pedagógicas para que o professor tenha referências mais amplas para sustentar o trabalho de ensinar. / The concentration of Brazilian public universities on the elite is the central concern of this research. Inclusion programs have provided the possibility of a greater representation of students in unfavorable socioeconomic conditions in these institutions. At the University of São Paulo USP, chosen locus for this research, the inclusion program INCLUSP, has, since 2007, favored the admission of students who studied their entire high school in public schools, which, in Brazil, are majorly composed of students in societys less favorable conditions. An objective of this research is to provide elements that promote university teaching in the sense of favoring a successful academic career for these students, which is understood as the possibility of professional, scientific and political education, role which we attribute to public universities and is perceived to be realized by the promulgation of professional teaching coalesced with research and extension. For that purpose, data was collected through two open questionnaires, which were answered in writing by the subjects of this research at different moments. The first questionnaire looked to identify the main difficulties that freshmen students who attended public high schools have in their first year at the university. The second stage sought to establish whether the difficulties brought up during the first stage lasted through the year following the subjects admission or not, and how they had dealt with these difficulties. The data collection occurred in three courses of the University of São Paulo which presented lower retention of students who attended public high schools, which is interpreted as a form of exclusion. The main academic difficulties that were identified, which constitute barriers to a successful trajectory, were: the exiguity of time and its bad management; the choice of a superficial approach to schooling; the quantity and complexity of contents; the frustration when confronted with unsuccessful situations; and difficulties with academic daily life. From the study it was possible to extract as demands of the teachers the necessities: of reflecting about the social function of the university and the low representation of students in unfavorable socioeconomic conditions, especially in more prestigious courses; of identifying and reflecting about difficulties freshmen students have, keeping in mind the differences between courses and subjects-students; of considering aspects of time management as teaching contents, emphasizing how and what to study and learn considering that the students are in a process of affiliation and construction of new forms of relating to knowledge; of rethinking about: the function of evaluative activities, how the curriculum and the learning activities are organized and the importance of the professor creating possibilities and activities that favor the academic daily life, contributing to the affiliation and integration of the newcomer. Such demands indicate the need of continuous development of university professors, especially due to the low requirement of pedagogical formation of teachers in this level of teaching, as to create reflective teachers, favoring the construction of pedagogical bases so that the professor has more ample references to support the work of teaching.

The Texas experiment on the border : analysis of student access and success of Borderland top 10% students at Borderland and top tier public universitiesRodríguez, Cristóbal 31 January 2011 (has links)
This study analyzed trends in access and success of students admitted through the Top 10% admissions policy. The study employs a comparative analysis between public universities from the Borderland region and the two top-tier public universities in Texas. This Texas admissions policy provides students in the top 10% of their graduating high school class admission to any state 4-year public university. Therefore, this policy implies that being a top 10% student equates to being college ready for any public university in Texas, regardless of selectivity or top tier status. Research on the Texas Top 10% policy has focused on its success in improving diversity and student performance at the two top-tier public universities in Texas, The University of Texas at Austin and Texas A&M University. However, enrollment disparity continues at these elite institutions between Whites, Latina/os and Blacks. Additionally, the Texas Borderland region is an intersection of large Latina/o demographics; distance from top-tier institutions; and great disparities in economic development, health, and education. Combining the aforementioned conditions, we know little about the access and success of Borderland top 10% students, particularly in comparing the two public top tier universities in Texas to the alternative choice of their local Borderland university. This study used mixed methods to compare the trends in access and success of Borderland students admitted under the Top 10% admissions policy at Borderland universities and at top-tier public universities, and additionally controlled for student characteristics in explaining student persistence and graduation. The quantitative analysis used student-level descriptive and inferential statistics with data facilitated by Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board. The qualitative section of this dissertation used focus-group interviews with 36 students at 5 Borderland universities and 1 top-tier university to explain their success. This study applies Bourdieu's theoretical framework of social and cultural capitals and habitus to interpret the findings. Results indicated student differentiation between institutions in access, success, and explanations. Ethnicity, gender, family income, and college generation status influence differences in enrollment between institutions, in which all together influenced differences in graduation and persistence. On the other hand, the interviews revealed that personal effort and institutional resources also explained differences in student success. This study provides implications for further research and policy considerations. / text

Previous issue date: 2017-02-14 / Não recebi financiamento / The deployment of programs relative to quality of working life (QWL) in the public sector is increasing, emphasazing the concern with the employees in the professional and personal aspects. This essay recognized the relevance of QWL and its actions in these organizations and analyzed the quality of working life programs (QWLP) in three public universities in the geographic area DRSIII-Araraquara. To achieve this, it was made a multicase study to understand the management of QWL e how QWLP are evaluated. For a better comprehension of the QWL and QWLP, it was presented a theoretical material about the issues and themes that involve its main concepts and approaches, the relevant legislation, the QWL programs and its respective evaluation strategies, furthermore, the QWL was showned in the public sector context. It was used a theoretical, empirical, descriptive and explanatory metodology with documental analysis and field research. This Project was approved by the Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa – CEP/UFSCar (Opinion n° 1.613.134/2016). The results and discussion were systematized with the identified particularities in the three investigated cases, followed by the perceptions of QWL and the characterization of each program (management, evaluation, actions and developed activities). It is indicated that the studied programs have their own characteristics (program initiative, motivations, the targetting, as well as the strategies used in the management and evaluation) according to institutional guidelines and demands. In the end, it is presented some suggetions for deployment or improvement of the QWLP in the public sector ruled by empirical and theoretical evidences. / A implantação de programas relativos à qualidade de vida no trabalho (QVT) no setor público é cada vez mais comum, evidenciando a preocupação com os servidores nos aspectos profissionais e pessoais. Reconhecendo a relevância da QVT e suas ações nestas organizações, este trabalho analisou o programa de qualidade de vida no trabalho (PQVT) em três instituições públicas de ensino superior da região geográfica DRSIII-Araraquara. Para isso, foi realizado um estudo multicaso para compreender a gestão da QVT e como os PQVT são avaliados. Para um melhor entendimento sobre a QVT e PQVT, foi apresentado um material teórico acerca das questões e temas que envolvem seus principais conceitos e abordagens, as legislações pertinentes, os programas de QVT e suas respectivas estratégias de avaliações, além de expor sobre a QVT no contexto do setor público. Utilizou-se metodologia teórico-empírica, descritiva e exploratória, com análise documental e pesquisa de campo. Adotou-se procedimentos qualitativos para análise de dados. O Projeto foi aprovado pelo Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa - CEP/UFSCar (Parecer nº 1.613.134/2016). Os resultados e discussão foram sistematizados com as especificidades identificadas nos três casos investigados, seguido das percepções da QVT e a caracterização dos respectivos programas (gestão, avaliação e ações e atividades desenvolvidas). Aponta-se que os programas estudados têm características próprias (iniciativa do programa, motivações, eixo norteador, bem como nas estratégias empregadas na gestão e avaliação) de acordo com diretrizes e demandas institucionais. Apresenta-se ainda algumas sugestões para a implantação e/ou aprimoramento de PQVT no setor público pautadas em evidências empíricas e teóricas.

Previous issue date: 2013 / Desde 1996 o Brasil optou por investir na Atenção Primária à Saúde (APS) como base estruturante do Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) através da Estratégia Saúde da Família (ESF). Esta decisão implicou em um aumento significativo da demanda de médicos generalistas. A escassez de médicos especialistas (Médicos de Família e Comunidade – MFC’s) tem feito com que boa parte dos postos de trabalho na ESF esteja sendo ocupada por recém-graduados e/ou médicos não especialistas em APS. Este cenário mostra e demanda às escolas médicas a formação de profissionais aptos ao trabalho nesta área da saúde. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi avaliar como está sendo realizado o ensino das competências necessárias para o trabalho em APS durante o Internato nas escolas públicas da região Norte do Brasil. Sete escolas públicas da região Norte participaram da pesquisa. Optou-se por uma abordagem quanti-qualitativa, que foi realizada por três métodos: pesquisa documental dos projetos pedagógicos dos cursos (PPCs) e programas de Internato; aplicação de questionário semi-estruturado aos coordenadores dos programas de Internato; e, por fim, entrevista com estes coordenadores. Os dados documentais e empíricos obtidos permitem evidenciar que o ensino das competências no Internato ainda está distante de ser adequado às necessidades do médico que trabalhará na ESF. Apesar dos PPCs revelarem que as escolas estudadas buscam formar profissionais com perfil generalista e identificados com as necessidades da comunidade amazônica, nota-se que o percurso formativo não está fortemente orientado para a APS. Os achados indicam programas de Internato com uma carga horária insuficiente para o ensino da APS; estágios em outras áreas da saúde não voltados ao ensino de competências generalistas uma vez que o enfoque ainda é em medicina hospitalar e atenção secundária ou terciária; ausência de definição de uma matriz de competências a ser desenvolvidas ao longo do Internato; não explicitação clara nos PPCs dos métodos de avaliação de competências dos internos; dificuldades de encontrar preceptores qualificados e disponíveis; estrutura precária das Unidades de Saúde; obstáculos na integração entre universidade e serviços de saúde; e a insignificante atratividade do campo da APS para o interno. Apesar destas sinalizações todos os programas de Internato estudados contemplam estágio na ESF, correspondendo no máximo a vinte por cento da carga total. Ao menos metade das escolas tem realizado estágio em municípios do interior (estágio Rural), iniciativa com potencial indutor de interiorização dos profissionais médicos. Apreende-se das manifestações dos Coordenadores que há necessidade de uma reorientação do currículo da graduação e do próprio Internato em direção a uma maior ênfase no ensino da APS. Frente aos desafios de mudanças na formação do médico no país, este trabalho culmina com uma proposta de diretrizes para orientação do internato médico para a atenção primária à saúde, ganhando especial significância com o recém-lançado Programa Mais Médicos (2013), que, entre outras ações, sugere uma maior aproximação com a APS durante a formação médica. / Since 1996, Brazil chose to invest in Primary Health Care (PHC) as a basis for organization of the Unified Health System (SUS) through the Family Health Strategy (FHS). This decision resulted in a significant increase in demand for general practitioners. The low number of specialized doctors (Family and Community Physicians – FCP’s) has made much of the jobs in the FHS is being occupied by recent graduates and/or non-expert general practitioners. This scenario demands for medical schools to train professionals able to work in this area of health. The objective of this research was to assess how it is being done teaching the skills needed to work in APS during the medical internship in the public schools of northern Brazil. Seven public schools in the northern region participated. We opted for a quantitative and qualitative approach, which was performed by three methods: desk research of the pedagogical projects (PPs) and internship programs, application of semi-structured questionnaire to the coordinators of the internship programs, and, finally, interview with these coordinators. The data obtained allow documentary and empirical evidence that the teaching of skills in the internship is still far from adequate to the needs of the physician who will work in the FHS. Despite PPs reveal that the studied schools seek to prepare students with generalist profile and identified with community needs of Amazon region, we note that the training path is not strongly oriented to PHC. The findings indicate internship programs with insufficient workload for teaching PHC ; placements in other health areas not geared to teaching generalist skills since the focus is still in hospital medicine and secondary or tertiary care; lack of definition of an array of skills to be developed during the internship; no clear explanation of the skills assessment methods; difficulties to find qualified and available preceptors ; precarious structure of the Health Units; obstacles in the integration between university and health services; low attractiveness of the field of PHC. Despite all these caveats internship programs studied include the FHS rotation, corresponding to a maximum of twenty percent of the total internship load. At least half of the schools have performed rotation municipalities (Rural rotation), initiative with the potential to induce inner country migration of medical professionals. Coordinators of internship programs said that there’s a need for a reorientation of the undergraduate curriculum and the internship itself toward a greater emphasis on teaching PHC. The challenges of change in medical training in the country, this work culminates with a proposal of guidelines for medical internship orientation to primary health care, gaining special significance with the newly launched Program ―Mais Médicos‖ (2013) , which, among other actions, suggests a closer relationship of medical training with PHC.

Avaliação de desempenho multicritério construtivista como apoio à gestão da relação universidade-empresa / Performance evaluation constructivist multi-criteria as support for the management of the university-industry relationTorrico, Giovana Moreira 04 April 2018 (has links)
Uma universidade está alicerçada sobre três eixos: o ensino, a pesquisa e a extensão, sendo a extensão o foco deste trabalho, onde por meio de trabalhos cooperativos com empresas são desenvolvidos uma grande gama de atividades como: cursos, consultorias, pesquisas, etc. Estas parcerias, apesar de benéficas envolvem interesses conflitantes entre as partes, como direitos de propriedade intelectual e resultados intangíveis, tornam a relação diversificada e complexa. Sendo assim, para a gestão da relação U-E é importante a construção de um sistema de avaliação de desempenho organizacional (ADO), que contemple em sua estruturação as particularidades do contexto, e possa auxiliar o gestor na tomada de decisões. Neste sentido, a presente dissertação tem como objetivo construir um modelo de avaliação de desempenho da relação da Universidade Tecnológica Federal do Paraná (UTFPR) – Câmpus Pato Branco com as empresas da sua área de abrangência. Para alcançar o objetivo da pesquisa aplicou-se as seguintes metodologias: Knowledge Development Process – Constructivist (ProKnow-C) para seleção e análise de um portfólios bibliográficos, com a finalidade de construir conhecimento sobre ADO da relação U-E; na sequência adotando-se como instrumento de intervenção para a construção do modelo de ADO da relação U-E a metodologia Multicritério de Apoio à Decisão Construtivista (MCDA-C), dado a sua capacidade de considerar as percepções do decisor sobre o contexto e integrá-las ao modelo de ADO. A pesquisa tem natureza exploratória e descritiva. Utiliza dados primários e secundários. O método de pesquisa é quali-quanti, sendo qualitativo na fase de estruturação do problema e quantitativo na fase de avaliação. Os principais resultados obtidos na análise realizada no portfólio de artigos selecionados, sobre a avaliação de desempenho da relação U-E, foram: a maioria dos estudos não explicita a participação do decisor na construção dos modelos de avaliação; não são realizadas integração dos indicadores; nem descritas ações de aperfeiçoamento para melhoria da avaliação de desempenho. Observou-se 275 indicadores diferentes, nos 14 artigos analisados, com destaque para número de patentes e número de publicações. Na construção do modelo de ADO os principais resultados foram: Construção de 58 indicadores para avaliação do desempenho da relação U-E, separados em 3 grandes áreas de preocupação (Gestão, Projetos Técnicos e Novos Negócios). Realizada a avaliação global da situação atual, obteve-se o resultado de 42 pontos, em uma escala em que 0 equivale ao nível neutro e 100 equivale ao nível bom; também identificou-se 14 indicadores com resultado comprometedor, para os quais foi possível sugerir ações para aperfeiçoamento, que se implementadas alterariam o resultado da avaliação para 78 pontos. Comparando os 58 indicadores propostos no modelo, com os 275 indicadores encontrados na literatura, observa-se que somente 15 apresentam similaridades, demonstrando que o modelo desenvolvido é único e válido apenas para o contexto para o qual foi desenvolvido, reforçando desta forma a necessidade de uma metodologia com estruturação de problema para o desenvolvimento do modelo de ADO. Desta forma o presente estudo demonstra a sua importância, pois preenche as lacunas encontradas na literatura para estudos que considerem as particularidades do contexto, bem como a visão e valores do decisor, pois desenvolveu um modelo de ADO com a participação do decisor, construindo conhecimento sobre o contexto por ele gerido e resultando em uma ferramenta que o apoia na tomada de decisão. / A university is based on three axes: teaching, research and extension, being the extension the focus of this work, where through collaborative work with industries a wide range of activities are developed, such as courses, consultancies, research, etc. These partnerships, while beneficial, involve conflicting interests between the parties, such as intellectual property rights and intangible results, make the relationship diverse and complex. Therefore, for the management of the U-I relationship, it is important to build an organizational performance evaluation model (OPE), which includes in its structuring the particularities of the context, and can assist the manager in making decisions. In this sense, the present research aims to build a model for the performance evaluation of the University Technological Federal of Paraná (UTFPR) - Câmpus Pato Branco with the industries in its area of coverage. In order to achieve the objective of the research, the following methodologies were applied: Knowledge Development Process – Constructivist (ProKnow-C) for selection and analysis of a bibliographic portfolio, in order to build knowledge about OPE of the U-I relationship; following the adoption of the Multi-criteria Methodology for Decision Aiding - Constructivist (MCDA-C) as an intervention tool for the construction of the OPE model of the E-I relationship, given its capacity to consider the perceptions of the context and integrate them into the OPE model. The research has an exploratory and descriptive nature. Uses primary and secondary data. The research method is quali-quanti, being qualitative in the structuring phase of the problem and quantitative in the evaluation phase. The main results obtained in the analysis carried out in the portfolio of selected articles on the performance evaluation of the U-I relationship were: most of the studies did not explain the participation of the decision maker in the construction of the evaluation models; indicators are not integrated; nor described improvement actions to improve performance evaluation. There were 275 different indicators, in the 14 articles analyzed, with emphasis on number of patents and number of publications. In the construction of the OPE model the main results were: Construction of 58 indicators to evaluate the performance of the U-I relationship, separated into 3 major areas of concern (Management, Technical Projects e New Businesses). Once the overall assessment of the current situation was obtained, the result was 42 points on a scale where 0 equals the neutral level and 100 equals the good level; it was also identified 14 indicators with compromising results, for which it was possible to suggest actions for improvement, which if implemented would change the result of the evaluation to 78 points. Comparing the 58 indicators proposed in the model, with the 275 indicators found in the literature, it is observed that only 15 have similarities, demonstrating that the developed model is unique and valid only for the context for which it was developed, thus reinforcing the need for a problem structuring methodology for the development of the OPE model. Thus, the present study demonstrates its importance because: it fills the gaps found in the literature for studies that consider the particularities of the context, as well as the vision and values of the decision maker, since it developed an OPE model with the participation of the decision maker, building knowledge about the context it manages and resulting in a tool that supports it in decision making.
