Abstract

(VF)Les 85 universités françaises vivent deux réformes (dites Lolf et LRU) qui demandent des outils plus précis. Le calcul du coût complet d’un diplôme est tentant, mais un poste essentiel est sujet à diverses valorisations:le coût salarial des enseignants. Une première section rappelle la difficulté à cerner les gammes opératoires et à mesurer le temps de travail dans les premières expériences connues à l’université. Une deuxième section donne le résultat de tests liés à la diversité des statuts et des grades, à la manière de mesurer et de rémunérer l’activité d’enseignement, le tout débouchant sur des différences notoires entre groupes homogènes d’étudiants dans un même diplôme. Dans une troisième section, une étude sur le temps de travail des enseignants-chercheurs constate la grande volatilité de ces temps, ce qui rend peu significatifs les temps moyens utilisés pour estimer des coûts. (VA)The 85 French universities are aware of two reforms (called Lolf and LRU) that require more precise tools. Calculating the full cost of a degree is tempting, but a major expenditure item is subject to various valuations:salary cost of teachers. The first section points out the difficulty to identify the operating ranges and measuring working time, known in the first experiments at university. A second section gives the results of tests related to the diversity of status and grades, how to measure and reward the teaching activity, all leading to significant differences between homogeneous groups of students in the same degree. In a third section, a study of the working time of teachers and researchers noted the high volatility of those times, which makes insignificant the average time used to estimate costs.
