Evaluation of the efficiency of educational resource allocation in 21 traditional Chinese medicine colleges and universities based on DEA analysis
Objective To analyze the current status of educational resource allocation in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) universities using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA),scientifically evaluate their input-output efficiency,and provide empirical evidence for enhancing resource allocation efficiency in TCM higher education. Method This study used cross-sectional data from 21 TCM universities for 2020—2021 and employed the DEA-BCC model to measure the efficiency of educational resource allocation. Additionally,projection analysis was conducted to improve non-DEA-efficient universities. Result Overall,the 21 TCM universities were in a non-DEA-efficient state,though effectiveness was above 0.8,indicating relatively high efficiency in resource allocation,with room for further improvement. Conclusion The input-output efficiency of TCM universities needs enhancement overall,with significant variation among institutions. Teaching staff and financial inputs both require further strengthening. It is recommended that local governments utilize policy guidance in line with regional characteristics,while TCM universities should focus on knowledge translation,talent development,and increased research funding to continuously improve the efficiency of resource allocation in TCM education.
