Research On The Large-Scale Instruments & Equipments Management Of University-Based On The Property Rights Theories

Large-scale instruments and equipments are the material foundation for the universities, colleges and their affiliated national key laboratories etc. to fulfill teaching and researching functions. For the state-owned assets management, its very important to understand and manage universities and colleges'large-scale instruments and equipments to fulfill its teaching and researching functions, and to realize the economic value and social benefits in the socialist market economic system.However, waste, such as repeat purchase, redundant construction and idle, has reduced efficiency in the use of large-scale instruments and equipments of the universities and colleges. The fundamental reason lies in not only that the property rights of large-scale instruments and equipments are ambiguous, but also that we have not established an effective state-owned assets management system.In this study, the property rights theories are used to clarify the large-scale instruments and equipments management crux, as well as explore the large-scale instruments and equipments management concepts and useful countermeasures.First, the property rights theories are used as the analyzing tools to explore the transaction costs, external effects, defining of property rights, property rights system, and the principal-agent theories of large-scale instruments and equipments in the process of management. Chinese universities and colleges are public institutions and their management concepts, means and methods are to some extent still constrained to the planned economic system thinking. The theories of property rights in the socialist market economy system will help us understand the large-scale instruments and equipments management from a new perspective and update the management concepts, means and methods.Secondly, the study analyzes and proposes large-scale instruments and equipments management approaches and countermeasures by comparing and using foreign and domestic large-scale instruments and equipments management experience. The first step, the study analyzes and compares with the United States, Germany, Japan, and Korean that are advanced in science and technology from the aspects of the management, ownership of property rights, and the use of the large-scale instruments and equipments. The second step, the study selects three domestic typical large-scale instruments and equipments management cases and carried out a comprehensive analysis. Finally, the study explores the large-scale instruments and equipments management approaches and useful countermeasures by comparing and using foreign and domestic large-scale instruments and equipments management experience.
