The input variables used in this research were number of student, number of lecture, and the budget of fund, while the output were number of research and number of graduate student. Furthermore, each input and output variables were regressed on the efficiency level, in order to know the impact of the variables on the efficiency level. The result showed that number of student gave negative impact on efficiency, while the number of lecture, the number graduate students, the amount of budget of fund, and the number of research gave positive impact.
