Abstract

Data envelopment analysis is a relatively new data oriented approach to evaluate the performance of a set of peer entities called decision making units which convert multiple inputs into multiple outputs. It has been extensively applied in performance evaluation and benchmarking entities such as hospitals, universities, cities, courts, and business firms. This study provides the evaluating results of the operational efficiencies of local universities using a DEA approach. In addition, we explore the difference of the efficiency between regional flagship national universities and non-flagships.

자료포락분석(data envelopment analysis)은 여러 종류의 투입요소와 산출요소를 이용하여 의사결정단위(decision making unit)들 간의 상대적 효율성을 평가하기 위해 많이 사용되는 기법이다. 본 연구에서는 자료포락분석을 이용하여 지방대학들의 연구 및 교육분야에 대한 효율성을 분석한다. 먼저, 우리나라 국 공립 대학들의 효율성에 대해 살펴보고, 지역거점대학(regional flagship national universities)과 비거점(non-flagship)대학 간의 효율성이 통계적으로 유의한지 여부를 탐색한다.
