Veri Zarflama Analizi (VZA) homojen karar verme birimler kümesinin (ör., bankacılık, sağlık, eğitim, vb.) göreli etkinliklerinin değerlendirilmesinde kullanılan parametrik olmayan bir yöntemdir. VZA modellerinin aynı zamanda üniversiteler ya da daha spesifik olarak üniversite bölümleri için de kullanılmıştır. Uygulamada, girdi ve çıktı ölçütlerinin belirlenmesi mevcut verilerden hareketle gerçekleştirilir. Fakat, önemli bir ölçütün ele alınmaması ya da güvenilir olmayan verilerin kullanılması karar vericiyi yanlış yönlendirebilir. Bu yüzden, çalışmada mevcut olmayan verilerin, örneğin çıktı ölçütlerinden çıkartılarak, karar verme birimlerinin etkinlik değerlerine etkisi değerlendirilmiştir. Bir Mühendislik Fakültesinde bulunan bölümlere ait güncel veriler incelenerek performans değerleri eğitim ve akademik araştırma yönünden değerlendirilmiştir.
