Abstract :	[en] We study the possible implications of incentive schemes as a tool to promote efﬁciency in the management of universities. In this paper, we show that by designing internal ﬁnancial rules which create yardstick competition for research funds, a multi-department university may induce better teaching quality and research, as compared to the performance of independent departments.
