This study calculates
local economic and employment impact of Cukurova University for 2015-2016
fiscal year using Keynesian multiplier method. For that, university budget
expenditures data, national statistical data resources and survey data were
used. Economic impact of the university is measured by demand side expenditure.
Keynesian income multiplier was calculated to be 1,23. Marginal propensity to consume,
a key factor in estimating economic impact, was estimated to be 0,61 using
ordinary least squares method in E-views. This paper shows economic importance
of the University to locality by estimating total local income and employment,
and that the University makes a significant contribution to local economy. Total
direct and total indirect impact are estimated to be ₺284
and ₺689 million respectively. Total local impact of the
University was estimated to be ₺1,2 billion with an additional income
of ₺227 million and additional employment of 6874.

Bu çalışma
Çukurova Üniversitesinin 2015-2016 dönemi için yerel ekonomik ve istihdam
katkısını Keynesyen çarpan yöntemi ile hesaplamaktadır. Bu amaçla,
üniversitenin bütçe harcamaları verisi, ulusal istatistiksel veri kaynakları ve
anket verileri kullanılmıştır. Üniversitenin ekonomik katkısı talep yanlı
harcama ile ölçülmüştür. Keynesyen gelir çarpanı 1,23 bulunmuştur. Ekonomik
katkıyı hesaplamada önemli bir faktör olan marjinal tüketim eğilimi, E-views
istatistik paket programında sıradan en küçük kareler yöntemi kullanılarak 0,61
hesaplanmıştır. Bu makale, toplam yerel gelir ve istihdamı hesaplamakla üniversitesinin
bulunduğu yerel bölge için ekonomik önemini ve üniversitenin yerel ekonomiye
katkıda önemli bir güç olduğunu göstermektedir. Toplam doğrudan ve toplam dolaylı katkı sırasıyla ₺284
ve ₺689 milyon hesaplanmıştır. ₺227 milyon ek gelir ve 6874 ek istihdam
kapasitesine sahip olan üniversitenin toplam yerel katkısı ₺1,2 milyar
hesaplanmıştır.
