Abstract: Using Stochastic Frontier Approach (SFA), the synergetic impact of government-industry-university-research-user on the university knowledge innovation chain output and its efficiency is empirically examined. The results show that the central and local governments have different effects on the university knowledge innovation chain;The funds afforded by enterprises and institutions can not promote the increase of university paper output, however they have a significant positive effect on the number of patent applications in university; user needs have both positive effects on the efficiencies of patent licensing and technical transfer income of university. Finally, based on the results, the relevant policy implications and suggestions are given.
