In this work, the network data envelopment analysis (DEA) model was used to divide the transformation of scientific and technological achievements in colleges and universities into two stages, which makes up for the lack of process measurement in a single DEA model. Also, the relationship between the transformation efficiency of scientific and technological achievements in universities and the development of a low-carbon economy was quantitatively analyzed. The research results show that: (1) the transformation efficiency of scientific and technological achievements of universities in China is increasing year by year and which is significantly higher in the eastern region than that in the central and western regions. (2) The efficiency of the transformation of scientific and technological achievements of the university promotes the reduction of carbon emission intensity and the development of a low-carbon economy, indicating that the improvement of the transformation efficiency of scientific and technological achievements of the university has a good role in promoting the ecological environment protection. However, compared with the developed countries, the quantity and quality of science and technology supply and ecological environment protection in China’s universities are still insufficient. In this regard, the development suggestions are put forward from the aspects of government policy guidance, professional talent cooperation and strengthening the docking between universities and industrial low-carbon economic development. The purpose of this paper is to promote the development of a low-carbon economy by improving the efficiency of scientific and technological achievements transformation in universities, to achieve the goal of ecological environment protection.

开展高校科技成果转化，促进低碳经济发展

本文利用网络数据包络分析（DEA）模型将高校科技成果转化分为两个阶段，弥补了单一DEA模型缺乏过程测量的不足。此外，定量分析了大学科技成果转化效率与低碳经济发展之间的关系。研究结果表明：（1）我国高校科技成果转化效率逐年提高，东部地区明显高于中西部地区。（2）高校科技成果转化效率促进了碳排放强度的降低和低碳经济的发展，表明高校科技成果转化效率的提高具有在促进生态环境保护方面起到了很好的作用。但是，与发达国家相比，我国高校的科学技术供应和生态环境保护的数量和质量仍然不足。对此，从政府政策指导，专业人才合作，加强大学与产业低碳经济发展的对接等方面提出了发展建议。
