Resumo

Publicado em "AIP Conference Proceedings" Vol. 1648

This work aims at describing and characterizing students allocation satisfaction in the Portuguese public higher education system through the students' point of view, namely in the academic engineering programs. A complementary ratio is defined that allows the comparison with the ratio provided by the Portuguese Education Ministry through the Institutions' point of view. Mann-Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis tests were performed. Through cluster analysis it was possible to identify and characterize the new ratio and to make a comparison with the existing one.

This research was partially financed by the Research Centre of Mathematics of the University of Minho and by the Research Centre for Textile Science and Technology of the University of Minho with the Portuguese Funds from the “Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia”, through the Project PEstOE/MAT/UI0013/2014 and through the Project Pest-C/CTM/UI0264/2013, respectively.
