Full textNew Public Management helps universities and research institutions to perform in a highly competitive research environment. Decision making in the face of uncertainty, for example distribution of funds for research needs and purposes, urges research policy makers and university managers to understand the relationships between the dimensions of research performance and the resulting or incoming grants. Thus, it is important to accurately reflect the variables of scientific knowledge production on the level of individuals, research groups and universities. Chapter 2 of this thesis introduces an analysis on the level of individuals. The data are taken from the three widely-used ranking systems in the economic and business sciences among German-speaking countries: Handelsblatt (HB), Research Papers in Economics (RePEc, here RP) and Google Scholar (GS). It proposes a framework for collating ranking data for comparison purposes. Chapter 3 provides empirical evidence on the level of research groups using data from a Collaborative Research Center (CRC) on financial inputs and research output from 2005 to 2016. First, suitable performance indicators are discussed. Second, main properties of the data are described using visualization techniques. Finally, the time fixed effects panel data model and the fixed effects Poisson model are used to analyze an interdependency between financial inputs and research outputs. Chapter 4 examines the interdependence structure between third-party expenses (TPE), publications, citations and academic age using university data on individual performance in different scientific areas. A panel vector autoregressive model with exogenous variables (PVARX), impulse response functions and a forecast error variance decomposition help to capture the relationships in the system. To summarize, the chapter addresses the possible implications for policy and decision making and proposes recommendations for university research management.

This thesis reports a study of industry-university collaborations aimed at the development of best practices to enhance the impact of such collaborations on company competitiveness. The data sample involves twenty-five research-intensive multinational companies which engage in collaborative research on a regular basis. Over 100 different collaboration projects are analyzed through interviews with the responsible project managers and with senior technology officers. The interviewees provided both quantitative and qualitative information about the success and lack of success of the collaborations. Based on these data, seven best practices for managing collaborations have been defined which, when taken together, significantly contribute to the long-term success of the collaboration. These practices are: 1) select collaboration projects that complement company R&D; 2) select university researchers who understand specific industry goals and practices; 3) select project managers with strong boundary spanning capabilities; 4) promote longer collaboration timeframes; 5) provide appropriate internal support for project management; 6) conduct regular meetings at the company between university and industry researchers; and 7) build awareness of the university project inside the company.

Full textIn South Africa, there has been recognition of the need for increasing research capacity at South African universities and within the national science system. Furthermore there has been a need to address imbalances in the racial and gender profile of researchers. There has been a growth of application-oriented, multidisciplinary research centres at South African universities in response to changing national and international knowledge contexts. Many research centres have a research capacity development component and run postgraduate programmes in collaboration with academic departments. This it was relevant to investigate what types of contexts these centres provide for research capacity development and postgraduate education. In this study, individual research capacity development was examined as a process of identity formation and socialisation through social, organisational and epistemological lenses.

Full textThis dissertation study focuses on reasons and means of industry and university
collaboration which lead to innovation. Collaboration in this study is viewed as one:
communication, exchange of knowledge and learning form the innovation process. This
research has followed a qualitative approach for methodology and the data was collected
through two interviews. The results of this study show how university research
collaborates with industry from the university research point of view. The findings also
reveal that university research can not produce innovation without practical knowledge
which is provided by company during collaboration. In the same way the company can
not produce scientifically based innovation without the interactive learning.

Full textDisertacijoje, remiantis pokyčių vadybos teorijos modeliais, šiuolaikine mokslo samprata bei tarptautinėmis iniciatyvomis ir dokumentais, įtakojančiais aukštąjį mokslą, nagrinėjamas mokslinių tyrimų valdymas Europos universitetuose. Šios analizės naujumas pasireiškia apjungiant pokyčių vadybos teorijos modelių elementus, šiuolaikinės mokslo sampratos bruožus ir tarptautinių iniciatyvų bei dokumentų prioritetus į teorinį modelį, skirtą mokslinių tyrimų valdymui. Šis modelis yra tikrinamas pasitelkiant atvejų analizės metodą, apimantį šešių valstybių – Belgijos (Flandrijos regiono), Čekijos, Danijos, Olandijos, Suomijos ir Vokietijos – universitetų mokslinių tyrimų valdymo praktikas. Atsižvelgiant į jas, yra pateikiama išplėstinė modelio versija, nubrėžianti universitetinių mokslinių tyrimų universitete valdymo ciklą. Toks modelis gali būti taikomas kaip instrumentas siekiant apibrėžti mokslinių tyrimų valdymo prioritetus bei numatant alternatyvas jų įgyvendinimui. Diskutuojant šio modelio pritaikomumą Lietuvoje, daroma išvada, kad jo taikymas šalies aukštojo mokslo institucijose galėtų prisidėti prie efektyvaus mokslinių tyrimų valdymo reorganizavimo bei universitetų konkurencingumo ir tarptautinio matomumo.

Journal for New Generation Sciences, Vol 10, Issue 3: Central University of Technology, Free State, Bloemfontein, 2012. http://hdl.handle.net/11462/621.
Full textIn their research as well as their teaching, universities of technology (UoTs) expect to be infused by the application of technology and to be integrally related to the world of work. At the same time, research at UoTs is characteristically innovatory, in the specific sense of transforming research discoveries into products or services that are user-oriented and commercially viable. Since practical problems and user needs do not respect disciplinary boundaries it follows, firstly, that such research at a UoT will in some sense not respect disciplinary boundaries, i.e. it will have to connect, cross, or integrate traditional disciplines. This paper seeks accordingly conceptually to differentiate the relevant senses of multi-, inter- and trans-disciplinary (MIT) research. It then characterises the fourteen current research programmes at Central University of Technology (CUT) in these regards, comparing the findings from interviews with the programme leaders with the insights of the authors. Secondly, in that most research at UoTs is also expected to be innovatory, it is demanded of researchers that they also master the skill of researching the feasible applications of findings, developing products, and envisaging commercialisation; and handing the stakeholder relationships that arise in these interactions. The interviews further indicate the extent to which the respective programmes have moved down the MIT road. They also reveal that the challenges that are faced by the programmes are overwhelming generic rather than specifically MIT-related. Some strategic recommendations are extracted from the findings.

The important point here is that non-religious individuals were studied under this scope, as well. Another building block of the study is the relationship between religiosity and political participation forms. Just as religiosity, political participation was reviewed from a multi-dimensional point of view and conventional, unconventional and post-modern participation were investigated both in terms of non-religious, intrinsic and extrinsic religious individuals. Likewise, the relationship between political participation and self-monitoring was analyzed, as well. The important point for the study here is that no other study of a similar nature has been found neither in the national nor international literature, and that, therefore, the study will contribute to both in this sense. A questionnaire was conducted on 872 university students. Numerous analyses were conducted in this study in order to reveal the relationship among these concepts. As a result of the study, it was found that the intrinsic religiosity is associated with low-self-monitoring while the extrinsic religiosity is associated with high-self-monitoring. In addition, it was determined that self-monitoring is positively influential on the political participation. In parallel to the relationship of the self-monitoring with the religiosity, it was found out that the extrinsic religious perform more participation in every form of political participation than the intrinsic religious.

The purpose of the present study is to investigate the Shanghai Elderly University. The documentary analysis method was mainly adopted and interview on the telephone secondly. The documents which had been collected from 1985 to December of 2006 included the relative documents, books, reports, editorials, and websites of Shanghai Elderly University. By reading and arranging them, the researcher tried to discuss the origin, the development, the administrative organization, funds, the sources of the instructors, the admission, the members, the teaching issues, and the curriculums of Shanghai Elderly University. After the discussion of the above, the researcher generalized the features from it and provided some recommendations for the elders’ education in Taiwan. The research about Shanghai Elderly University can be generalized into five features as below: 1. about the administrative organization: the good framework of administrative organization, the institution-base management, and using the elders'' human resources. 2. about the budget structure: the low tuition supported by the government. 3. about the teachers: from broadness and diversity. 4. about the curricula: diverse courses and discretionary enrolment and leaving. 5. other dimensions: innovative administering, gathering the elders for congregate dialing and watching, and learning points around the city. Besides, the researcher analyzed the implement of Shanghai Elderly University, then pointed out the dilemma and blind spots of it, and finally provided the elders’ educational institutes with five recommendations as following: 1. about the administration: different organizations to supervise different municipal elderly universities 2.about the budget: the budget support was insufficient, and the low tuition made old members not leave and new ones not be able to enter. 3. about the admissibility: strict membership resulted in trouble enrolling new members. 4. other dimensions: citizens still lacked the concept of lifelong learning, technological accessory learning should consider the poverty gap between urban and suburb areas, learning space of elderly universities is insufficient, and so on. At last, the research of Shanghai Elderly University provides eight recommendations as below: 1.The government can offer different types of elderly learning courses. 2.The government should pay much attention to elderly learning institutions and fixed budget support. 3.The government should set up an organization to supervise elderly educational institutions. 4.Offering diverse courses can attract the elders to take part in learning activities. 5.Use elderly volunteers and elderly human resources well. 6.Elderly educational institutions should offer thorough information service. 7.Don''t limit teaching to traditional instruction and offer diverse learning models. 8.Put emphasis on communication between domestic and foreign elderly educational institutions.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between Cyber-bullying problems and internet behavior, and survey by 431 questionnaires to understand the parameters and usage situation, and analyze significance. The major conclusions are following: 1. there are differentiations among sex, grade, achievement, school on roles of cyber-bullying. 2. There’s a significant relation between cyber-bullying and internet behavior and usage place. 3. There’s a significant relation between parents and cyber-bullying. 4. Most cyber bullying incidents took the form of harassment, insult, or humiliation, rumors, attack, identity theft, and relationship bully. 5. Cyber bullying occurred frequently in a variety of venues and through different mediums: that were web pages, chat rooms, e-mails, instant messaging on the Internet, text messaging via a cell phone, social networking websites, video-sharing websites and topic chat rooms which harassment took place. 6. The factor of peers was related to the role as a victim, an informer, and a supporter significantly. 7. Those who witness cyber bullying generally do not intend to reveal the truth because they don’t want to get in trouble or to be revenged. The study provided several suggestions to school, related institutions, and further study in future.

ABSTRACT Research Over University Performance Measurement─Applying Balanced Scorecard on a Private University by Sun, Shou Pi July 2006 ADVISOR: Dr. Chen, Huei-yuan DEPARTMENT: Public Affairs and Management MAJOR: Public Affairs and Management UNIVERSITY: Kainan University DEGREE: Master of Arts In recent years, the development of higher education has rapidly expanded due to its extensive demands. However the situation led to some problems as well, such as the lower quality of education, the crowding out of educational funds, the aggravation of school managements and most of all the domestic low birth rate and advertising for students from foreign universities after entering WTO. All of these phenomena result in a severe competition over our domestic higher education market. When schools face the fact of changes in the educational system and environment, they spontaneously develop their distinctive characteristic to advertise for more students. This study is to lead in the balanced scorecard; by interviews and documents, attempting to progressively analyze through the four layers of the balanced scorecard, furthermore, to go a step further and establish the balanced scorecard for schools. With this concept, the development strategy for schools and the effect evaluation system thus can combine together, making the school operating tactic into an actual action.

In recent years, research personnel have taken published journals more and more seriously in university. The government also invests a lot in Education such as “Excellence Program” and “Existence of Fifty Billions of Five Years”. Therefore, publications of research and analysis will be helpful to policy reference of education authority and academic unit. This study analysis be number of paper published in SSCI and SCI database for 3495 faculty members in six academic units in 57 universities during 2006-2010, statistics of paper quantity in SSCI and SCI, and processing classification. To estimate the variation between groups of academic units, we focus on the quantity of paper by using several criteria, including “attribution of academic units”, “classification of university” and “Existence of Fifty Billions of Five Years”. Our result shows that, for SSCI, more articles are submitted in Department of Economics, Finance, Business Administration and Management Information System. While in SCI, the primary works are coming from Department of Computer Science & Information Engineering and Management Information System. National universities have a comparatively higher quantity of comtribution than private ones in SSCI and SCI in this five years. No matter in the National or Private universities, Department of leisure studies & tourism management submits less than others.
