HEV: A Health Evaluation Model Based on Entropy Weighting for National Higher Education System

The comprehensive evaluation of a country's higher education system is of paramount importance as it serves as a critical factor in the development of higher talents and the future growth of a nation. To achieve this objective, we propose the Higher Education System Health and Sustainability Evaluation Model (HEV), which employs the entropy weighting method to determine the weights of eight indicators that significantly impact the health of a nation's higher education system. Subsequently, the model leverages the corresponding values of each indicator to calculate the health level of a country's higher education system. In addition, we introduce the Health Improvement Model of the Higher Education System (HEVP), which utilizes multivariate linear programming to calculate the desired HEV target score, considering the impact of national policies on the health of the higher education system. The proposed model will be used to evaluate and analyze the national higher education system, and an effective monitoring system will be established through the implementation of specific policies, combined with the impact of relevant social indicators, effectively ensuring orderly performance and sustainable development.
