Abstract | The study reported in this paper examines the institutional cost structure of the postsecondary vocational education system in Turkey. The study uses a single-output quadratic cost function to analyze 65 individual vocational schools located within the 28 existing universities. Appropriate controls for institutional quality, discretionary allocation of staffing resources, the degree of technical instruction in the curriculum, and regional variation are also included. Both marginal and average costs for each school are estimated over relevant ranges of student enrolments for determining prospective degrees of economies of scale. The findings should help policy makers in Turkey determine which vocational schools can reap efficiencies by an expansion (or contraction) of their student enrolments. (DIPF/Abstract übernommen) |
