Abstract

Universities need to contribute to the sustainable development of their communities, with a primary purpose of education and research. Recently, the Economic and Social Impact(ESI), a measure of sustainability of universities, has been emphasized, but there is a lack of research on this. Therefore, this study examined the ESI indicators of existing universities and introduced cases of ESI development applied to K-university. In this study, we reviewed the ESI literature, analyzed domestic and international cases, and conduct an analysis of economic effect. As a result, we developed ESI indicators that includes both supply and demand side effects, and proposed an ESI assessment method that distinguishes the influence of universities and their impact on the community. Therefore, it is meaningful that this is a case of how universities measured ESI and how to use it. Future research will require advancement of the university's ESI assessment methodology, development of multipliers appropriate for the university, and comprehensive ESI indexing.

대학은 교육과 연구라는 본연의 목적과 함께 지역사회의 지속가능한 발전에 대한 기여가 요구된다. 최근 대학의 지속가능성 측정도구인 사회경제적 영향(Economic and Social Impact: ESI)이 강조되고 있으나, 이에 관한 연구는 매우 미흡하다. 따라서 본 연구는 기존의 대학의 ESI 지표를 고찰하여 K대학에 적용한 ESI 개발사례를 소개하였다. 본 연구의 방법은 ESI 문헌조사, 국내외 사례분석 및 경제적 파급효과 분석을 수행하였고, K대학에 적용한 사례를 고찰하였다. 연구 결과 수요와 공급 측면의 효과를 모두 포함한 ESI 지표를 개발하였고, 대학의 영향력과 지역사회에 미치는 영향력을 구분한 ESI 산출방법을 제안함으로써 대학이 어떻게 ESI를 측정하고 이를 활용할 수 있는지를 탐색한 사례라는데 그 의의를 가진다고 할 수 있다. 향후 연구는 대학의 ESI 산출 방법론의 고도화, 대학에 적절한 승수개발, ESI 종합 지수화가 필요하다.
