TLDR
Estimates of relative efficiency and productive performance of 13 colleges at the University of Santo Tomas (UST), using data envelopment analysis (DEA) – Malmquist indices and a multi-stage model imply that UST colleges as a whole have recorded a higher level of technical efficiency than innovation.

Departmental efficiency differences within a Greek university: An application of a DEA and Tobit analysis

TL;DR: This paper assesses research performance of academic departments within a single Greek university and finds that “environmental effects” such as departmental infrastructure, age and schools' personnel have an important role.

Technical efficiency of business administration courses: a simultaneous analysis using DEA and SFA

TL;DR: Both data envelopment analysis and stochastic frontier analysis are applied to measure the efficiency of higher education courses, especially the business administration courses offered by private for-profit institutions that focus just on education and are located in the same geographical region.

Two-stage performance model for evaluating the managerial efficiency of higher education: application by the Taiwanese tourism and leisure department.

TL;DR: In this article, the relational two-stage data envelopment analysis is applied to evaluate 34 tourism and leisure departments in Taiwanese technology universities and the study results indicate that the two stage performance evaluation model is superior to the single-stage model.

Measuring the efficiency of decision making units

TL;DR: A nonlinear (nonconvex) programming model provides a new definition of efficiency for use in evaluating activities of not-for-profit entities participating in public programs and methods for objectively determining weights by reference to the observational data for the multiple outputs and multiple inputs that characterize such programs.

Some Models for Estimating Technical and Scale Inefficiencies in Data Envelopment Analysis

TL;DR: The CCR ratio form introduced by Charnes, Cooper and Rhodes, as part of their Data Envelopment Analysis approach, comprehends both technical and scale inefficiencies via the optimal value of the ratio form, as obtained directly from the data without requiring a priori specification of weights and/or explicit delineation of assumed functional forms of relations between inputs and outputs as mentioned in this paper.

Productivity growth, technical progress and efficiency change in industrial countries

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed productivity growth in seventeen OECD countries over the period 1979-88 and found that U.S. productivity growth is slightly higher than average, all of which is due to technical change.

Productivity Growth, Technical Progress, and Efficiency Change in Industrialized Countries

TL;DR: In this article, a nonparametric programming method (activity analysis) is used to compute the Malmquist productivity indexes, which are decomposed into two component measures, namely, technical change and efficiency change.

The efficiency of Australian universities: a data envelopment analysis

TL;DR: In this article, non-parametric techniques are used to estimate technical and scale efficiency of individual Australian universities and the results show that regardless of the output-input mix, Australian universities as a whole recorded high levels of efficiency relative to each other.
