During these more than 30 years, the progress of higher education in China was so considerable that has drawn the attention of the world. Both the scale and the quantity have been greatly improved. But in resent years, in the course of promoting popularization of higher education, some colleges and universities ignored the importance of improving education resources'efficiency because of eager to expand its scope. This caused the contradictory phenomenon that the scarcity and lower using efficiency of higher education's resources existed with the waste of these resources. As a result, these factors seriously restricted sustainable development of higher education institutions. Therefore, the research of colleges and universities'running efficiency evaluation has the very vital significance for increasing running cost-effectiveness of higher education institutions, promoting the healthy development of higher education, meeting the demand of constructing human resource powers and innovative country.First of all, this article introduced the background and significance of the research of higher education institutions'running efficiency evaluation, current situation of this evaluation both domestic and overseas, and the main contents and technical route of this article. Secondly, the author presented main theories, relevant concepts of the Data Envelopment Analysis(DEA) methods and characteristics of DEA. Then, the paper analyzed that it is feasible for DEA to evaluate the efficiency, and introduced the basic principle of C2R model and BC2 model, also including the implementation steps of DEA. Thirdly, the paper introduced the basic principle of constructing efficiency evaluation index system of institutions of higher education. Based on the summary of previous studies of higher education institutions'input-output index, this article analyzed the composition of input-output data thoroughly and determined the input and output indicators. For local universities in Hebei province as examples, combining with the characteristics of local colleges, the author established Hebei province colleges" efficiency evaluation index system. In this system, the input indicators included the number of working staff, school teaching and research area, the value of teaching and research equipment, the number of library holdings. The output indicators consisted of the equivalent number of students in school, released three major search papers, research funding, technology transfer.Finally, after selecting 10 universities with the similar layer and style in Hebei province for empirical analysis and collecting the data according to the system of evaluating indicator, the paper calculated solution with DEAP software which is based on the model of C2R and BC2. The results showed technical efficiency, pure technical efficiency and scale efficiency of these 10 universities. Through the quantitative analysis, for the institutions of higher learning which DEA invalid, the author pointed out the existing problems in resource allocation by projection analysis and lack rate of input and output rate of redundancy analysis, and also offered some adjustment suggestions. This article also provided decision-making reference for universities managers in mining institutions' resources potential and improving running efficiency.
