Subsequently, the validation is completed by establishing hypotheses of efficiency relationships between the perspectives proposed, employing Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). Empirical evidence has been obtained on the validity of the proposed BSC for a unit of academic management in the university. The first contribution of this work is the establishment of a framework of analysis of the hypothetical cause-effect relationships in the BSC in university institutions. The second contribution is to obtain the determining factors of the performance in this type of institution and, therefore, the Strategic Map. Specifically, these factors are: the participation of teaching staff in innovation activities;the number of doctorate-level staff;the academic subjects and credits in the Virtual Campus;and the scores in the surveys of student satisfaction. With respect to research, the determining factors of the performance are: the research sexennials;the funding obtained from contracts with companies;the number of research projects obtained;their financing;and the participation of teachers in these projects.展开更多
