Abstract

This paper conducts an empirical analysis on the regional industry-university-research(IUR)cooperation efficiency of China in 2010by adopting two-stage method of DEA-Tobit.The results indicate that the integrated technical efficiency of IUR in China is 0.846,which is low mainly due to the pure technical inefficiency;the regional IUR cooperation efficiency in Eastern area of China is the highest,followed by Western and Central Parts of China.Purely technical inefficiency is the most important reason of integrated technical inefficiency in Central area.Regional GDP growth rate,the proportion of education spending and technology market transactions over GDP,the number of enterprises with RD activities are significantly related to regional IUR cooperation efficiency.
