Abstract The European Union gives universities an important place to participate in research and development in the country. The basic research and teaching process of higher education institutions is gradually becoming more and more scientific, and the importance of science and research is growing. Th e growing importance of R&D for universities also increases the importance of public support in this area. Slovakia was eligible for support from the structural funds by joining the EU. In the period 2007 - 2013, universities have had the highest increase in science and research spending due to the use of these resources. However, it is a question of the extent to which this form of public support has contributed to the field of research and development of higher education institutions and whether there has been a real increase in their research and development activities. We examine the effectiveness of the support granted to public universities from the European Union Structural Funds on the basis of measurable indicators of granted projects and the impact of outputs on their scientific research potential in the regions of Slovakia. The results of the analysis highlighted the high level of public support for university infrastructure projects at the expense of support with a focus on intellectual property creation and patents. The discussion is focused on whether the funds allocated in this way were effective in relation to the objectives of the Operational Program Research and Development 2007 - 2013 and thus contributed to an increase of scientific and research potential at higher education institutions in the regions in Slovakia.

欧盟结构基金对高等教育机构的公共支持及其评估:斯洛伐克的案例研究

摘要欧盟为大学提供了参与该国研究与开发的重要场所。高等学校的基础研究和教学过程逐渐变得越来越科学,科学研究的重要性也越来越高。研发对大学的重要性日益提高,这也增加了公共支持在该领域的重要性。斯洛伐克有资格加入欧盟,获得结构性基金的支持。在2007年至2013年期间,由于使用了这些资源,大学在科学研究方面的支出增长最快。然而,这是一个问题,这种形式的公共支持对高等教育机构的研究和开发领域做出了多大贡献,以及它们的研究和开发活动是否真正增加了。我们根据可衡量项目的可衡量指标以及产出对其在斯洛伐克地区的科研潜力的影响,研究了欧洲联盟结构基金对公立大学提供支持的有效性。分析的结果突出表明,对大学基础设施项目的公共支持水平很高,但其重点是知识产权创造和专利。
