Abstract
The paper deals with assessing the efficiency of the faculties of universities of applied sciences. A model based on Data Envelopment Analysis was created, using specifically the CCR alternative. It is an input-oriented method, assuming the constant returns to scale. The model was subsequently validated on an example of a specific university. The results clearly show that the model was able to determine how and to which extent a given faculty is effective. It also provides the assessor with a tool to manage the efficiency of the faculty, as it is able to identify the causes of possible ineffectiveness. Further research focuses on the model´s applicability in the environment of all universities of applied sciences ideally all over the world.
