摘要:This study examines ho w budgeting and funding affect service delivery in medical ed ucation in Nigeria using College of Medicine of the University of Lagos (CMUL) as the case study. Predicated on the human capital theory and the Resilience and Youth Development Module (RYDM) model, it employed the output-oriented Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) as the main technique of analysis for measuring efficiency level of the CMUL. For robustness of result, the use of questionnaire complemented the DEA results through annual time-series data which was employed for both theoretical tests and estimations. The study developed a framework for funds allocation between core and non-core expenditures of medical schools that ensures sustainability of funds generation and utilisation by the CMUL. While the study revealed lack of optimal utilisation o f available financial resources, it confirmed that budgeting and fundin g are relevant to service delivery of medical education.
