Abstract

Universitäten lösen als zentrale Institutionen in der wissensbasierten Gesellschaft vielfältige Wirkungen aus. Eine Quantifizierung dieser gesamtwirtschaftlichen Effekte bleibt aufgrund von methodischen und datenbezogenen Problemen aber oft bruchstückhaft. In einem umfassenden Ansatz wurden sowohl kurzfristige mit dem Universitätsbetrieb verbundene als auch längerfristige Wirkungen von Universitätsoutputs auf die Produktivität abgebildet. Wie ökonometrische Analysen der Wirkung der Forschungstätigkeit an Universitäten und der Tätigkeit von Absolventen und Absolventinnen sowie Modellschätzungen der Nachfrage- und Produktivitätseffekte zeigen, übersteigt das damit verbundene Steuer- und Abgabenaufkommen schon in einem relativ kurzen Zeitraum die für die Finanzierung von Universitäten eingesetzten öffentlichen Mittel. Investitionen in Universitäten rentieren sich damit für den Staat.
