Abstract

Dem von Presse, Wirtschaft und Politik vorgeworfenen Defizit bundesdeutscher Hochschulen soll mit einem verstärkten Qualitätswettbewerb um den Kunden Studenten abgeholfen werden. Student(inn)en müßten dann allerdings bei der Wahl ihrer Hochschule Kriterien in Betracht ziehen, die durch Qualitätsentscheidungen von Hochschulen vorteilhaft beeinflußt werden können. Auswertungen für betriebswirtschaftliche Fachbereiche bestätigen allerdings die für. Deutschland seit längerem im Raum stehende Vermutung, wonach die Attraktivität eines Studienortes das dominante Entscheidungskriterium darstellt. Weder Qualitätseinschätzungen der Wirtschaft noch Indikatoren der wissenschaftlichen Produktivität beeinflussen robust das Wahlverhalten der Studierenden.
