碩士 === 嶺東科技大學 === 財務金融研究所 === 100 === In recent years, experts and scholars were commissioned by the education sector to establish performance indicators to assess the operating performance of a school of higher education or self-test assessment was held by individual schools following the relevant indicators. However, the community, academia and schools expecting school management performance assessment should consider learning-employment gap, teachers' professional coaching skills and the use of objective assessment and make limited educational resources the most efficient using for enhancing national competitiveness. Technical institute and college in our country were divided into state and private two categories by government investment funds and the establishment of the organization. Considering the individual group business performance evaluation in the assessment of education funding allocation and education policy-making process will be more objective and more efficient. The purpose of this study was to investigate the Taiwan area Technical institute and college use the resources and its output performance during the study period for the 89-94 school year in Taiwan of 14 National and 59 private technical colleges was picked for the study, each academic school for each sample as the economic institutions of the multiple inputs and multiple outputs and there were total of 73 study samples. Relevant information variable of States, private Technical institute and college were filtered and selected the appropriate input and output ones to applying data envelopment analysis (DEA) and Metafrontier Approcah (Battese and Rao ,2002) to relax assumption of constant returns, and using the BCC output-oriented model as the main analysis to assessment the differences of operating performance between national Technical institute and college group and private Technical institute and college group. The results show that the percentage of inefficient production performance among overall National technical colleges is 14.10% and the inefficient management caused the inefficient production performance; the percentage of inefficient production performance among overall private technical colleges is 21.40% and the inefficient management also caused the inefficient production performance. Statistics exported by Meta-Frontier Data Envelopment found that the State technical colleges were in the whole inefficiency of 29.30%, and 21.80% of the private technical colleges inefficiency. Private technical colleges outperformed the national technical colleges. TGR observed an average of 3.80%, private technical colleges outperformed the national technical colleges, according to the results of the analysis in this study to make recommendations for technical colleges and education authorities reference.
