The paper brings a holistic approach to evaluating performance research in a higher education university able to capture the characteristics of the socioeconomic field through a statistical analysis of the various research components, research funding being used as input, and research output as the result of the investigation. Researchers' performance is a key requirement in this changing environment, and this must be an important concern for academic research institutions to obtain competitive funding that provides an interface and stimulate scientific productivity. In this paper, we deliberately concentrate on a multiple regression analysis using the characteristics of the research projects carried out, the value, the impact, as independent variables, depending on the number of scientific articles as a dependent variable. This investigation defines institutional performance research on the basis of an empirical study of extended research indicators that can be practically institutionalized and explicitly reflected in its management.
