Abstract

Purpose This paper aims to define a hierarchical and multi-criteria framework based on pillars of the Modernization of Higher Education to evaluate European Accounting Doctoral Programmes (EADE-Model). Design/methodology/approach The authors applied a quali-quantitative methodology based on the analytic hierarchy process and the survey approach. The authors conducted an extensive literature and regulation review to identify the dimensions affecting the quality of Doctoral Programmes, choosing accounting as the relevant and pivotal field. The authors also used the survey to select the most critical quality dimensions and derive their weight to build EADE Model. The validity of the proposed model has been tested through the application to the Italian scenario. Findings The findings provide a critical extension of accounting ranking studies constructing a multi-criteria, hierarchical and updated evaluation model recognizing the role of doctoral training in the knowledge-based society. The results shed new light on weak areas apt to be improved and propose potential amendments to enhance the quality standard of ADE. Practical implications Theoretical and practical implications of this paper are directed to academics, policymakers and PhD programmes administrators. Originality/value The research is original in drafting a hierarchical multi-criteria framework for evaluating ADE in the Higher Education System. This model may be extended to other fields.
高等教育体系和博士课程:欧洲会计博士课程的更新多标准评估模型
本文旨在定义一个基于高等教育现代化支柱的分层和多标准框架,以评估欧洲会计博士课程(eade模型)。设计/方法/方法作者采用了基于层次分析法和调查法的定性定量方法。作者进行了广泛的文献和法规审查,以确定影响博士课程质量的维度,选择会计作为相关和关键领域。作者还利用调查的方法选择了最关键的质量维度,并推导了它们的权重,建立了EADE模型。通过对意大利情景的应用,验证了所提出模型的有效性。研究结果为会计排名研究提供了重要的扩展,构建了一个多标准、分层和更新的评估模型,认识到博士培训在知识社会中的作用。研究结果揭示了有待改进的薄弱环节,并提出了可能的修订措施,以提高ADE的质量标准。实践意义本文的理论和实践意义是针对学者,政策制定者和博士课程管理人员。原创性/价值本研究在起草高等教育系统中评估ADE的分层多标准框架方面具有独创性。这个模型可以推广到其他领域。
