CRITIC Temelli MARCOS Yöntemi ile Yenilikçi ve Girişimci Üniversite Analizi

Abstract

Amaç: Çalışmada ülkemizdeki üniversitelerin 2020 yılı yenilikçilik ve girişimcilik performanslarının değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Yöntem: Değerlendirme sürecinde kriter ağırlıkları CRITIC yöntemiyle hesaplanmış, üniversitelerin performans düzeyi sıralaması ise MARCOS yöntemiyle elde edilmiştir. Bulgular: En önemli kriterin fikri mülkiyet havuzu kriteri olduğu saptanmıştır. Orta Doğu Teknik Üniversitesi, İhsan Doğramacı Bilkent Üniversitesi ve İstanbul Teknik Üniversitesi yenilikçilik ve girişimcilik açısından önde gelen üniversiteler olarak bulunmuştur. Sonuç ve Öneriler: Yenilikçilik ve girişimcilik anlamında eksiklikleri saptanan üniversitelerin zayıf yönleri ele alınarak iyileştirme önerileri geliştirilebilir. Özgün Değer: TÜBİTAK 2020 yılı yeni değerlendirme metodolojisini esas alarak MARCOS yöntemi ile yenilikçilik/girişimcilik alanında yapılan ilk çalışma olması nedeniyle literatüre katkı sağlanacağı ümit edilmektedir.
