A Mathematical Model for Estimating the Ideal Number of Outsource Academic Staff for Private Universities in Nigeria

摘要

We developed a model for determining the ideal number of outsourcing academic staff in privately owned universities in Nigeria. The method takes National Universities Commission (NUC) guideline on staff regulation into consideration. The estimated ideal number of outsourcing academic staff will complement the available academic staff so as to meet the staff-mix by rank ratio stipulated by the NUC.
