In order to evaluate the companies of the cement industry active in the Tehran Stock Exchange (Iran), it is first necessary to identify the indicators of the industry. Note that some of the indicator values provided by the Exchange Organization to the users may have been lost for any reason. All of the existing models for calculating the efficiency of such units calculate the weight of the indicators related to each unit under evaluation independent of the weight of other units. So, in this study, researchers decided to develop a common set of weight models and propose a model that evaluates efficiency in the presence of heterogeneity decision-making units (DMUs) based on the common set of weight models. Finally, the proposed model evaluates 25 cement industry companies in the presence of heterogeneity DMUs of indicators and the results are being analyzed.

This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of university roles in entrepreneurial intentions among university students. This study is also measuring the functions of the system supports as the control variables towards entrepreneurial intentions. Universities seem to compete in the industry to provide and develop the entrepreneurial skills set to their students. Perhaps they may add more benefit in preparing and equipping their students as entrepreneurs once they completed their studies. The study was conducted in local universities. Three hundred respondents were approached in getting the data compiled. Based on that, only 250 complete and usable data received in returns. An 83% response rate is achieved because the sample was from a list of young entrepreneurs' schemes currently being assessed by the government agencies. Questionnaires used to validate the items from university roles (6 items), entrepreneurial intentions (5 items), and finally support systems (6 items). Likert scales were used to measure all the items. Besides that, there are also seven questions for respondents' profiles. The results indicate that all tested hypothesized were positively significant. Universities should consider finding ways to develop and motivating their students towards entrepreneurial intentions. Further study may continue the model with different sets of control variables for concrete solutions in managing the student's entrepreneurial intentions.
