N2  -  The study employs Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and the
 Malmquist Index to evaluate the efficiency and productivity of 101 State
 Universities and Colleges (SUCs) in the Philippines. Using panel data
 spanning 2017 to 2021, the research adopts both Constant Returns to
 Scale (CRS) and Variable Returns to Scale (VRS) models. It examines two
 inputs-faculty] numbers and financial resources (personnel services,
 Maintenance and Other Operating Expenses or MOOE, and capital
 outlay)-and assesses two outputs-the total number of student
 enrollments and graduates. Results indicate that among the 101 SUCs,
 only 8 are considered efficient under the CRS model, while 11 are efficient
 under the VRS model. This discrepancy arises from the differing
 methodologies, with CRS generally yielding lower efficiency scores and
 VRS higher ones. Technical efficiency (TE) exhibits significant variability,
 with average scores ranging from 50% to 63%, and most SUCs operating
 at approximately 83% of their optimal scale. Similarly, allocative efficiency
 (AE) varies, with mean AE ratios of 0.4019 under CRS and 0.4836 under
 VRS, indicating that resources are allocated at only 40% to 48% of optimal efficiency. The study also finds modest productivity improvements,
 primarily driven by technological advancements, though with considerable
 variation among SUCs. It underscores the importance of strategic
 interventions to address inefficiencies, optimize resource allocation, and
 enhance educational quality. These interventions should focus on
 transparent resource allocation, administrator skill development, and
 robust quality assurance systems. Furthermore, the study suggests future
 research should concentrate on longitudinal studies to monitor progress
 and assess the impacts of interventions on SUC efficiency and
 effectiveness
