5 AUTH s The University established a research unit under the name of. This university covers most the undergraduate programs of studies that are offered in Greece. By using this research we are evaluating all the entrance criteria, student s preferences, as well as criteria from students regarding their academic studies. We are simultaneously evaluating the degree of information students have regarding their department of study, the sources of such information, as well as their evaluation regarding the knowledge and skills they received form the university. We also evaluated the department infrastructure and human resources as well as the university s administration services.

32 Discussion-Conclusions The authors perceive that this work make a contribution to a ranking dialogue mostly from students perspectives. The ranking scheme will be useful for pupils in order to make selection among Greek universities, for government policy makers in order to make the proper arrangement for funding purposes, for university s benchmarking purposes and for other stakeholders to have a clear view of the Greek universities.
33 Discussion-Conclusions We assume apart form official data concerning the research activities and the infrastructure, the most crucial fact in estimating quality is the opinion and perceptions of students. Students are the users of a higher education institute. They try highly to enter to the university spending time, money and effort to reach their goal. The Universities contribute to the society producing well educated, socially motivated and also potentially critical thinking people.
34 Students Ranking is needed from possible students as an information system to an approach similar to CHE. Potential students could compare departments or even Universities based on their own criteria. They need reliable information, collected by the proper authorities and institutes.
35 Universities Ranking is needed from Universities mainly as a diagnostic tool and/or as an instrument of quality assurance; however Greek universities are obliged by law to establish mechanisms of quality assurance. The indices we mentioned above could be use for that. They must establish a research unit similar to AUTH s observatory, in order to collect and analyze data. For each university a best practice approach should base on a model similar to Usher and Savino proposal. Beginning characteristics, Inputs and Outcomes could be estimated from the data collected. Furthermore, for each university this could be used as an initial point for a SWOT analysis.
36 Government Ranking is needed for the government and in a broader sense for the society. Government or society bodies, responsible for decision making, should know the data in order to setting the scene. They need to know to establish a system of priorities and to maximize the money spending for each university. They have the obligation to help the universities providing the means and the obligation to check the outcomes provided by the universities. They need a clustering approach based on reliable information.
37 International Bodies Ranking is useful for International bodies and organizations. In a globalization era they need to compare according to several criteria in a benchmarking approach-. An analytical model could summarize the main characteristics taking into account the most useful information. Opinion, beliefs and views the potential user has. Take into account the main factors obtained from the analysis we could explain and controlling the most of a student want from a university.
38 AUTH From the multivariate analysis we get (for AUTH s students) that they mainly are informed for University through non-official sources. That means the reputation of the Institute plays a significant role. They expect there will be an open bridge between university and the labour market. General abilities and skills are the most important learning factor for them. They concern firstly for cultural activities, secondly for significant infrastructure concerning facilitating studies, thirdly for board and lodging. Sports infrastructure, socialization and information follow.
39 Conclusion Further research is needed. Although a number of indices were proposed by several authors and organizations, there is need for weighing variables, clustering variables, setting a general system of priorities, harmonizing variables across countries and universities.
