Abstract

The objective of this research is to compare the efficiency of Castilla and Leon¿s Universities among them and to the Spanish Public Universities. This analysis faces the European Space for Higher Education. With this aim, we analyse ¿with a strategic perspective¿ the Spanish Public University industry. We conduct a structural industry and a strategic group analysis based on five strategic variables: resources and capabilities tangibles and intangibles, quality differentiation, specialization differentiation, market and product development. Next, we use the Development Data Analysis (DEA), a very adequate analysis for non-profit organizations and we accomplish the efficiency¿s measurement of a group of Spanish public Universities for each of the five strategic groups and for all the strategic variables. At this time, we compare the Castilla and Leon¿s Universities among them and to the Spanish public Universities. Finally, we conclude and recommend some ideas for the Public Agencies and for the members of the boards of Spanish Universities.2
