This study determined undergraduate and graduate education efficiency scores using the 2020 data from 20 state research universities in Turkey. The study used input-oriented data envelopment analysis to compare undergraduate and graduate education efficiencies. In the study, the efficiency of the research universities in the prioritized field(s) was compared with the efficiency in the field(s) in which they operate intensively. It also includes suggestions on increasing their effectiveness in the prioritized field(s). In addition, the Tobit regression model, which is a regression model for limited dependent variables, was used to determine the determinants of efficiency scores. The findings show the undergraduate and graduate education performances of research universities comparatively. In addition, based on the results obtained from the Tobit regression model, suggestions were made to increase graduate performance. Five factors (the number of graduate students per faculty member, the number of undergraduate students per academic staff, the number of graduates/undergraduates in the number of students and graduations, and the number of faculty members per program) have a significant effect on graduate performance. Therefore, it is important in terms of strategic management that research universities should be restructured by considering these factors or that they should be considered in plans. The study offers an alternative perspective to performance management in both education and management.

“…DEA is a well-known method to determine the relative efficiencies of a set of decision making units (DMUs) It is widely used to compare the efficiency of banks (Henriques et al 2020), healthcare (Sommersguter-Reichmann 2021), in education (Mojahedian et al 2020), in agriculture (Streimikis and Saraji 2021), in transportation (Mahmoudi et al 2020), in supply chain management (Soheilirad et al 2018) and in supplier selection (Dutta et al 2021, Vörösmarty andDobos 2020).…”

The selection of input and output items is crucial for successful application of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) as they should express the decision maker's preferences and perceptions of what might affect the efficiency of a decision making unit (DMU). This article addresses the question of the transformation of input and output data that may be required for efficiency analyses using DEA method. Different methods for the data transformation are available in the literature, however, they may lead to different results, which may bias the decisions. This paper attempts to provide some guidance on this issue and to compare the results. An example of supplier evaluation will be used to illustrate the possible solutions and the differences in the final results (supplier evaluated to be among the efficient suppliers).
