Abstract

This paper suggests a DEA/AHP hybrid model to deal with an allocation problem of research budget for the national research lab(NRL) program. The qualitative factors are appraised by AHP model and the quantitative factors are dealt with DEA model to evaluate the performance of research activities considering tangible and intangible factors. The proposed hybrid model is applied to get the importance weight of research areas for research budget allocation of NRL program.
