Full textChanging nothing to change everything: innovation and continuity in the reforms of Chinese administrative training — At the end of the Maoist era, the Communist Party of China (CPC) attempted to create a more highly‑skilled bureaucracy to achieve economic development in a stable political context. Reforms concerned not just recruitment, management and civil service organization, but also the training of officials in order to improve their skills. The introduction of the Master of Public Administration (MPA) in 1999 enhanced the scientific character of administrative knowledge while pre‑existing selective mechanisms were retained. The MPA supports the country’s modernization by enabling the State‑Party to undertake continuous reform of public administration. It allows as well the emergence of a new ethos and a community of vision among the new generation of civil servants, whose competences are adjustable to several possible political scenarios

The world has entered the era of globalization. People around the world are becoming increasingly interconnected—for better or worse. In order to educate students properly to deal with this new world of interconnection, universities increasingly adopt strategies of internationalization in order to achieve competitive advantage in both national and international markets. Internationalization has become one of the main approaches to respond to globalization of the school systems around the world in recent years. Under globalization, public administration education is supposed to prepare students for future action in advance. More specifically, any modern institute of public administration must incorporate internationalization/globalization elements into its content as well as methods of education in order to meet the trends of the world, and to enhance the competitiveness of their students. The author of this study conducts in-depth interviews with the chairs/department secretaries of the MPA programs at the universities within the Taipei City and New Taipei City area. This study also collects secondary data on the internationalization efforts of the programs in the recent years. At the same time, send questionnaires for the students to view their global competence. A comparison on these efforts and outcomes of the five selected MPA programs is made and presented in this article.

Abstract This research studies the current information education in the master programs of public administration in Taiwan, and the computer literacy of graduate students in the programs. It applies the curriculum guidelines regarding information technology set forth by the NASPAA to examine the curriculum design of information education in the MPA programs in Taiwan, and compare the design with top 50 MPA programs in the US. It also examines with a survey the computer literary of graduate students in Taiwan’s MPA program. It concludes with suggestions to future curriculum arrangements for the MPA programs in Taiwan. The research found that 83% of graduate students possess basic to medium range computer literacy in word-processing, spreadsheet, quantitative analysis, and presentation packages. Yet most of the students lack adequate training in databank management, public accounting, personnel management, GIS, and fiscal analysis packages. In terms of curriculum design, MPA programs in Taiwan and the US focus mainly on training for quantitative analysis. Meanwhile, they tend to ignore the need for information system management skills. The study thus suggests that MPA programs in Taiwan should emphasize the following to upgrade computer literacy of graduate students: 1. Continuing to provide advanced computer-related courses in databank management, public accounting, personnel management, GIS, and fiscal analysis. 2. Integrating information system management courses into the MPA programs. 3. Recruiting faculty with adequate professional background in information technology. 4. Establishing an organization that sets forth the standards of computer literacy and holds examinations for computer literacy certification.
