Abstract: Based on statistics data from 2000 to 2009, data envelopment analysis (DEA) is applied to analyze the science and technology (S & T) resource input-output effectiveness of universities in Guangdong Province. Results show that the overall effectiveness during 19992007 is satisfactory, while it is not good enough in the sense of DEA for some years. Also, the effectiveness for different indexes varies greatly with different trends. In general, the pure technology effectiveness is higher than that for the other indexes. Based on the analysis, it is found that inputoutput effectiveness can be improved by  increasing research funding.

Key words: research effectiveness of universities in Guangdong, input-output efficiency, data envelopment analysis (DEA)
