В данной исследовательской статье рассматривается один из основных экономических инструментов для анализа деятельности университетов – производственная функция образования. Эта функция отражает взаимосвязь между ресурсами и результатами деятельности образовательных организаций, а также является основой для расчета оценок их эффективности. Автором приводятся результаты оценки эффективности российских вузов, а также осуществляется их кластеризация на основе показателей результативности и эффективности деятельности. Результаты анализа свидетельствуют о том, что уровень эффективности является ключевым показателем деятельности университетов, который может быть использован при разработке государственных политик и регулирующих воздействий, а также при принятии решений относительно распределения ресурсов между данными образовательными организациями.

This paper analyses the educational production function (EPF), which is one of the main economic instruments for the analysis of university activities. This instrument describes the relationship between university performance and amount of available resources and forms the basis for calculating efficiency scores. In this paper we present the results of Russian universities’ efficiency analysis, as well as the results of cluster analysis based on university efficiency and performance scores. The results of our analysis suggest that efficiency is a key characteristic of a university’s activity and should be considered as an important indicator for elaborating public policies in higher education together with making decisions when distributing resources among educational organizations.
