BOGOYA M, Daniel. The academic impact of the Universidad Nacional de Colombia's Faculty of Engineering on the Bogota campus. Ing. Investig. [online]. 2011, vol.31, suppl.1, pp.29-39. ISSN 0120-5609.

An analysis regarding the quality of higher education programmes in Colombia is presented by comparing students' scores from a given institution on the ECAES 2009 test to students' performance throughout the country. The analysis uses the valueadded concept as applied to the academic world, this being obtained by using a regression model to ascertain the difference between the students' scores from a given faculty programme and the corresponding scores for students throughout Colombia; the higher education admission test was used to control initial results with results achieved by the same individuals on this test., A case study was proposed to illustrate the methodology by considering the Faculty of Engineering programmes at the Universidad Nacional in Bogota. Two different approaches were followed; the first used the generated function between SABER 11 and ECAES test scores and the second added institutional results by using the mean of the scores. The aforementioned Faculty of Engineering ratifies its relevance and importance as all its programmes come within the greater academic valueadded area.
