The evaluation of the effectiveness of higher education is a crucial aspect of competitiveness of modern economies. In this contribution we investigate the quality and effectiveness of higher education in Italy using a structural equation model; in particular, we evaluate the performance of the university system from the users’ point of view, both immediately following (internal effectiveness), and one year after (external effectiveness), the completion of the degree. The model allows the construction of synthetic indexes and hence the ranking of study programs.

Abstract
The evaluation of the effectiveness of higher education is a crucial aspect of competitiveness of modern economies. In this contribution we investigate the quality and effectiveness of higher education in Italy using a structural equation model; in particular, we evaluate the performance of the university system from the users’ point of view, both immediately following (internal effectiveness), and one year after (external effectiveness), the completion of the degree. The model allows the construction of synthetic indexes and hence the ranking of study programs.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
