A network DEA quantity and quality-orientated production model: An application to Australian university research services (2016, background): “funding as a qualitative measure is that it is an input in the research process [3,42].”

Higher education institutions costs and efficiency: Taking the decomposition a further step (2009, unknown): “So, for example, while Izadi et al. (2002) comment on the London Business School (which in that study had a low measured efficiency score) as an idiosyncratic case, it is clear from the present analysis that the higher than expected costs of that institution are due in part to an unusual cost…”

The efficiency of German universities–some evidence from nonparametric and parametric methods (2010, unknown): “Although recent investigations applied SFA, e.g. Izadi et al. (2002) and Stevens (2005), these studies only partially accounted for faculty composition by distinguishing between arts students and science students.”
Data Envelopment Analysis and Its Application to the Measurement of Efficiency in Higher Education. (2006, unknown): “Under a stochastic approach such as stochastic frontier analysis (SFA), however, the residual is separated into two components: one the result of inefficiency and one random.”
Measuring the efficiency of British universities: a multi‐period data envelopment analysis (2004, background): “Also, when the results of cost studies are disaggregated, strongly increasing returns emerge for postgraduate tuition, although the findings are more mixed as regards undergraduate tuition and research (see Glass et al., 1995; Johnes, 1997; Izadi et al., 2002).”
