Abstract	"Governments are increasingly pressing universities to justify their results. This includes the idea that the results of university activities should be the response to the changing needs of society." One reaction of universities to these demands has been "changes in the internal management, better internal efficiency in the use of the resources, and changes in the organisation and the structure of the government. ... The aim of this article is to describe some of the initiatives taken by Spanish universities to improve their efficiency, both internal (technical) and external (economic). Two universities with different characteristics and situations have been chosen. However, they do have a common feature: they have introduced innovative changes to improve their efficiency and their strategic position in a changing socio-economic environment." (DIPF/orig.)
