2 SLIDE 1: HIGH LEVEL KNOWLEDGE INPUTS AND OUTPUTS Slide 1 uses averages for for 4 input and 4 output variables, which reflect the state of high level knowledge production in the HE system, as a way of clustering HE institutions. These indicator averages are summarised in the Slide 1 data table. Inputs Masters enrolments as % of total head count enrolments Doctors enrolments as % of total head count enrolments % of permanent academic staff with doctoral degrees Ratio of doctoral enrolments to permanent academic staff Outputs Ratio of masters graduates to masters enrolments (throughput proxy) Ratio of doctoral graduates to doctoral enrolments (throughput proxy) Ratio of doctoral graduates to permanent academics (measure of academic staff research output efficiency) Ratio of research publications to permanent academics (further measure of academic staff research output efficiency )
