Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the relative efficiency of the research results of the convergence research project (CAP, Convergence Research Center) and general trust research project under the auspices of the NST, as the qualitative assessment of the government's R&D investment has recently been emphasized. To achieve this objective, DEA, which is widely used for the relative efficiency of research results, was used. The analysis targets were focused on the case of the KBSI, and the quantitative assessment of the number of papers and patent applications using net research and labor costs as input indicators for the DEA was compared and analyzed through IF of the paper and SMART3 of the patent. The analysis results showed that convergence research projects were highly efficient from a qualitative perspective in terms of CCR standards and BCC standards. This suggests that convergence research is being conducted at a higher level than general entrusted research. As a result of this study, we would like to present the criteria for qualitative assessment, which the government has recently emphasized, and expand this study to provide implications for planning policies and research tasks for rational R&D investment choices for human resources and research funds by assessing the efficiency of qualitative perspectives on all institutions in the future.

본 연구의 목적은 최근 정부 R&D투자에 대한 질적인 평가가 강조됨에 따라, 국가과학기술연구회 주관 융합연구사업(창의형융합연구사업, 융합연구단사업)과 일반수탁연구사업의 연구 성과에 대해 정성적 관점에서 상대적 효율성을 분석하는 것이다. 이러한 목적을 달성하기 위해 연구 성과의 상대적 효율성을 광범위하게 사용되고 있는 DEA를 활용하였다. 분석대상은 한국기초과학지원연구원의 사례를 중심으로 진행하였으며, DEA를 위한 투입지표로 순연구비 및 인건비를 활용하여 논문 및 특허출원 수에 대한 정량적인 평가와 논문의 IF 및 특허의 SMART3를 통한 정성적인 평가를 비교분석 하였다. 분석결과 CCR가준 및 BCC기준에서 정성적인 관점에서 융합연구사업이 높은 효율성을 나타냈다. 이는 융합연구가 일반 수탁연구 보다 높은 수준의 연구가 이루어지고 있다는 것을 시사한다. 본 연구의 결과로 최근 정부에서 강조하고 있는 질적 평가에 대한 기준을 제시하고, 아울러 본 연구를 확대하여 향후 모든 기관에 대한 정성적 관점의 효율성 평가를 통해 인력과 연구비의 합리적인 R&D 투자선택에 위한 정책 및 연구과제기획에 시사점을 제공하고자 한다.
