Selecting a fresh and applied topic for research is an important and difficult task. Studying the most important criteria for selecting a research topic from the point of view of graduate studies students is the aim of this paper. This survey, which is done by survey method, is an applied research in terms of purpose and it is a descriptive-analytical one in terms of nature. The statistical society is the total number of graduate studies students of the Humanities and Social Sciences of Shahid Chamran University of Ahwaz (1489 people), using the Krejsi-Morgan table, the approximate sample size was estimated at 306 people. Descriptive statistics and inferential statistics were used to analyze the data. Studies have shown that, among the criteria for selecting a research topic, the students have paid more attention to criteria such as “the new and applicable nature of the subject” and “the possibility of taking advantage of the results of research in the future”. They do not care much about the criterion of “place and organizational belonging”. Therefore, education groups and graduate studies students of the Humanities and Social Sciences, should select a fresh and applied subjects in the topic selection process to be able to take advantage of their results in the future.

The study aims to develop a native pattern for intellectual capital indicators aimed to measure these indicators in the Ahwaz University of Shahid Chamran. Therefore, the current study was done in a process including four phases which could lead to domestication of intellectual capital indicators. For this, initially and in order to identify a preliminary list of indicators, relevant references and documents were reviewed. Towards identifying appropriate indicators which can be suited to the Ahwaz University of Shahid Chamran, in the next step the views of the field experts were analyzed. Accordingly taking into consideration of the university’s goals, the process was followed by selecting relevant indicators and identifying the most important indicators based on the university’s senior managers. As a result, 77 indicators were selected as the final draft of intellectual capital indicators. At last the status of these indicators in the university was measured during 2004 to 2008. The findings showed that although about 71.88 percent of the all indicators were matched to the university’s goals, about 28.12 percent of them were not matched to the goals. Additionally finding revealed that in compare to the university’ human capital, the university’s structural capital had a better condition.

For conducting a survey about the status of knowledge management (K.M) in Shahid Chamran University and its relationship with organizational culture (O.C), 188 faculties and 119 employees were randomly selected and then asked to complete two questionnaires. The results illustrated that the status of (K.M) is lower than the critical value (t=3.5) and their differences are significant. Stepwise regression showed that five of (O.C) factors: (management support, identity, control, agreement whit conflict and risk tolerance) have significant effects on (K.M) and they can predict 36 percent of (K.M) variance. In addition, it was found that internalization alone can predict 25 percent of (O.C).

Main purpose of this research was efficiency evaluation of human science faculties of Shahid Chamran university via data envelopment analysis. Methodology of this research was analytical-descriptive. Five human science faculties of Shahid Chamran university (Physical Education, economics Education & Social Psychology, Literature and Humanities, and Theology) in a four-year period were studied. The required quantitative data were collected from these units, after weighting were divided into input indices including “staff, budget” and three output indices consisting of “education, research and services”. By performing the model in three different ways, expected efficiency was calculated for each faculty. Results indicated that in the first state involving two inputs and one output (education), only economics faculty was efficient and Theology, Literature, Education and Psychology and Physical Education were inefficient. In the second state, with two inputs and one output (research) only Education and Psychology Faculty was efficient and economics, Theology, Literature and Physical education faculties were inefficient respectively (ranking 2nd-5th). In the third state, with two inputs and one output (services) only Physical Education faculty was efficient and Literature, Economics, Theology and Education and Psychology were inefficient respectively (ranking 2nd-5th). In the fourth state, with two inputs and three outputs (education, research and service), all five faculties including Education and Psychology, Physical Education, Economics, Literature and Theology faculties were efficient respectively (in a descending orders). This means that Physical Education Faculty, despite it's limitations in comparison with other Human Science faculties, has an efficiency on par with other better equipped faculties. This indicates that this faculty plays a vital role in promoting sports and physical activities in society.
