The paper evaluates research and teaching efficiency at faculties of economics in the public higher education institutions in the Czech Republic. Evaluation is provided in two periods between the years 2006-2010 and 2007-2011. For this evaluation the Data Envelopment Analysis and Index approach are used. Data Envelopment Analysis measures research efficiency according to weighted inputs (average wages of academic staff, number of academic staff, and average number of students) to weighted output (RIV points). Teaching efficiency is measured according to weighted output (average number of absolvents). Index approach compares changes between productivity measured in two different ways (RIV points per academic staff, number of students per academic staff) and changes between average wages adjusted of average inflation rate. Although we evaluate research and teaching efficiency with different approaches, some similiraties can be found. Therefore, the detailed comparison of the results is provided. For the analysis we use data from the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports (MŠMT) and from the Research, Development and Innovation Council (RVVI).

“…HEIs´ performance has become an issue and comparative analyses have been recently published. For example, Vltavská and Fischer (2013) evaluated the labor productivity of HEIs' employees according to the teaching and research productivity. Furthermore, Flégl and Vltavská (2013) presented the efficiency analysis of the Faculties of Economics using Data Envelopment Analysis and production function analysis.…”

In an attempt to improve the quality of doctoral studies and the satisfaction of PhD students at the Czech University of Life Sciences Prague (CULS Prague) the authors disseminated online questionnaire among all PhD students in May and June 2014. The questionnaire covered areas related to doctoral study, PhD supervisors, doctoral scholarship, research publications, and last but not least, to satisfaction with the doctoral study. In this article, responses related to research, such as allocation of time to doctoral studies, allocation of time to research, involvement in research projects and satisfaction with research outputs, are analyzed. The authors provide comparison of all above mentioned domains according to faculties as well as form of doctoral studies at CULS Prague.

“…Nevertheless, they defi ne the RIV points before recalculation as an input for research and development. Vltavská and Fischer (2013) evaluate the labour productivity of HEIs' employees according to the teaching and research productivity. Furthermore, Flégl and Vltavská (2014) present the effi ciency analysis of the Faculties of Economics using Data Envelopement Analysis and production function analysis with similar data sources.…”

The evaluation of the publication outputs in the Czech Republic is based on the methodology from the Research, Development and Innovation Council. This methodology assigns a score to each output according to a various categories. The evaluation is carried out for 5 year-long sliding period. However, the assigned score for an output is published with more than a year delay. Moreover, the assigned score, in most of the cases, does not correspond with the scientists' fi rst calculation, which was made according to the generally known rules. The impact of this issue on the chosen scientifi c organisations, Higher Education Institutions (HEIs), is the topic of this paper. The evaluation and analysis of the fi nancial impact of this gap on the Czech higher education institutions' budgets is provided with data from the years 2007 to 2012.
