EVALUATION OF THE SCIENTIFIC ACTIVITY OF THE UNIVERSITY DEPARTMENTS BASED ON THE RATING OF THE TEACHING STAFF

Abstract

The scientific activity of universities is one of the most important elements of the educational environment of an educational organization, aimed primarily at providing high-quality graduate training that meets modern requirements for ensuring the fulfillment of strategic tasks of state development. The purpose of this study was to develop a methodology for evaluating the research work of the university department that meets the general theoretical methods of its organization. Given the structure of most universities, which is based on institutes (faculties) and departments, it is quite difficult to carry out an objective assessment of the research work of the department, since the teaching staff of the department implements tasks for teaching students in disciplines that are not directly related to the name and scientific direction of the department. The Institute of Cathedral scientific schools also does not reflect an objective assessment of the activities of the entire teaching staff, and is, as a rule, formal in nature. Based on this, the research work of the teaching staff of the departments is evaluated within the framework of a general rating assessment, which has a number of significant drawbacks, both from the point of view of objectivity and the methodology of its construction.
