Abstract:

The education quality improvement is the main objective for any educational institution. To achieve such purpose, it requires proper resource management of those needed to accomplish the academic processes. In this proyect the capacity of a higher education institution is estimated, in particular the undergraduate programs at Escuela Colombiana de Ingenieria Julio Garavito. System dynamics was used to achieve this objective. The model allows to estimate the effect in the horizon of admissions over resources like classrooms, laboratories and teachers. In order to develop and evaluate this model, historical data since 2000 and different scenarios of admission are tested.
