Abstract

Scientifc research is of vital importance to the development of colleges and universities. Scientifc evaluation of the scientifc research performance of colleges and universities, especially the study of their dynamic performance in different time ranges, can not only promote the progress of scientific research in colleges and universities, but also contribute to the rational allocation of national educational resources. Based on the Malmquist index, using the panel data of the fve-year period from 2012 to 2016, this paper evaluates the changes in the research performance of China’s colleges and universities, analyzes the influencing factors of total factor productivity changes from three perspectives of time series, comparison of colleges and universities, and regional analysis, and proposes countermeasures and suggestions.

Keywords:

Colleges and universities; Scientifc research; Effciency evaluation; Malmquist index
