RANGEL, Luís Alberto Duncan; MELLO, João Carlos Correia Baptista Soares de; GOMES, Eliane Gonçalves  and  GOMES, Luiz Flávio Autran Monteiro. Evaluation of a Brazilian University Strategy Aided by the Joint Utilization of UTA and MACBETH. Inv. Op. [online]. 2003, vol.23, n.1, pp.49-69. ISSN 0874-5161.

Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF) was created in the Municipality of Niterói (State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil). UFF has being going through a process of covering a considerable part of the hinterland of the State of Rio de Janeiro in recent years, which is a result from a policy towards decentralizing higher education. This paper describes that process, as well as the various activities conducted by UFF in different municipalities of the State. A multicriteria evaluation of the impact of UFF on each of these municipalities is performed. The evaluation relies on combining the MACBETH and the UTA methods.

Keywords : Multicriteria Decision Aid; MACBETH; Multiattribute Utility Theory.
