This study focuses on the knowledge-transfer activities of Korean universities at the organisational level. Considering the idiosyncratic characteristics of the Korean university system, as well as those of universities in other recently developed Asian countries experienced a rapid economic catch-up, this study is more interested in the relationship between the scientific capacity of universities and their knowledge-transfer activities, and between universities' funding sources and their knowledge-transfer activities. According to the results of the study, scientific capacity in a specific discipline, such as engineering, is important for universities in both other developed countries and in Korea, while scientific capacity (regardless of the discipline) is apparently not important for Korean universities, particularly in the area of domestic publication. Furthermore, this result supports the proposition suggested that strategically chosen industrial sectors in rapid catch-up countries are closely related to the scientific capacity of universities in specific disciplines. In terms of funding sources, the amount of funding from industry is strongly related to the knowledge-transfer activities of universities, whereas the proportion of funding from industry relative to the total amount of funding is not as significantly related to knowledge-transfer activities. The failure to identify a significant relationship between central government funding and knowledge-transfer activities may be due to less strict requirements for commercialisation in central government R&D programmes. Otherwise, central government funding fails to generate meaningful knowledge-transfer activities in universities.

Today rapidly changing internal and external environment of the universities such as the reduction of freshmen quota forces most universities to be facing a dangerous existence. It is an urgent thing for the universities to secure finance and good students. Because it was thought that to know freshmen's recognition of their choice of colleges would serve to establish the screening system of each university, we studied it through the survey of the freshmen in some universities. We randomly chose some national universities, private universities and educational universities to investigate who are responsible for their choice of colleges. It is shown that the influence of their high school teachers upon their students’ choosing universities is no more than 10%. As a result, the establishment of proper policy of admission to each university on its own that makes use of the characteristics of the region and the university will be effective in choosing good students.

Because of the changing educational environments, Korean universities have to stand up to the challenge of enhancing their performances in educational activities. Therefore, Korean universities should seek ways to improve its competitiveness. The evaluation of Korean universities has been conducted by the Government and other media agencies like JoongAng's Daily to promote the development of universities. The purpose of this study is to evaluate and compare the relative efficiency of Korean universities using DEA (Data Envelopment Analysis) and AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) models. To produce reasonable results, major input and output variables have been determined in a step using a Profiling method, Spearman correlation analysis and AHP model. Also, this study shows that the relative efficiency for Korean universities is obtained not only based on quantity of output, but also on the basis of the quality of the output. Drawing upon the results of the analysis, this study provides a comprehensive and practical method for evaluating the performance of universities in terms of efficiency.

Universities in Korea are already saturated with fashion-related majors, and graduates are having difficulties getting jobs. For this reason, Korean universities should educate students with a competitive curriculum. The purpose of this study was to analyze and compare the curricula of fashion-related majors at universities in Korea and the United States (U.S.) in order to help develop fashion-related curricula at the universities in Korea. The curricula of the 52 majors in 47 Korean universities and the 62 majors in 62 U.S. universities were analyzed. Data was analyzed using MS Excel 2010 and R 3.0.1.; the statistical significance was determined at ${\alpha}$=0.05. There were five main differences between fashion-related majors in Korean universities and those in the U.S. universities: 1) The subjects of the U.S. were more diverse and more business-oriented than those of Korea, but the universities of Korea had more design subjects. 2) The U.S. more often utilized computer technology, than Korea, in the field of fashion design. 3) The U.S. offered more theoretical courses, than Korea, in the field of fashion materials. 4) In the clothing construction field, the U.S. offered more apparel design and technical design than Korea. 5) The U.S. mainly educated on retailing and buying subjects while Korea mainly educated on fashion marketing subjects within the fashion business field.

In order to improve the employment rate of graduates in maritime and fisheries universities, we investigated the employment situations of the those graduates for the last 7 years. The results were as follows, The ratio of graduates in maritime and fisheries universities to total graduates of on-board departments are 69.1% and 30.9% respectively. The on-board employment rate of maritime universities and fisheries universities graduates are 63.2% and 26.7% respectively. Nearly all of the maritime universities students were employed to merchant ship and fisheries universities students were employed to merchant ship 77.2% and only 22.8% of them got a job on fisheries ship. The ratio of getting a job in maritime universities to ocean-going ship was 76.7%, that was the highest ratio and the ratio of fisheries universities got a job to ocean-going ship was 55.1%. The on-board career of maritime universities graduates was 1~5 years, which took 86.4% of all careers and that of fisheries universities was less than 1 year, which took 60.0% of all careers. We should make the various efforts to improve the employment rate of getting job to fisheries ship in the fisheries university gradustes.

This paper investigates the two academic revolutions of the Korean higher education system. Since economic catch-up began in the 1960s, Korea has strongly encouraged the activities of its higher education system to serve industrial development as it has progressed through various developmental stages. At the 'strong regulation' stage, universities focused on the provision of technicians. As the need for higher education grew, the 'massive expansion' stage emerged. Finally, most recently, university research and its direct contribution to the economy have been invigorated by strong governmental support. Possibly, this is due to the fact that the Korean government has strongly controlled not only industry but also academia. As long as other East Asian universities have similar conditions to those of the development of Korean universities, we can generalise this model not only to universities in other East Asian countries, but also to universities in other rapid catch-up countries.

한국 대학의 근본적 개혁을 위한 기획 가운데 가장 지속적이고 영향력 있는 것은 국공립대통합네트워크론이다. 대학의 평준화를 이념적 기반으로 하는 이 담론은 대학서열화를 완화하고 입시지옥을 해소한다는 명분 하에 제기되어 지금까지 20년 가까이 많은 논의를 낳았고 특히 개혁지향적인 현 정부 들어와서 그 실행여부가 초점으로 떠오르고 있다. 이 논문은 이 담론의 이론적 근거로 제시되어온 해외 사례와 비교하여 현 시점에서 이 대학통합론의 이념적 기반과 현실성 문제를 재검토하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이 대학통합론은 프랑스 파리대학의 통합사례와 캘리포니아 주립대체제를 모델로 하여 이를 한국적 상황에 적용하고자 하는 시도이기도 하다. 그러나 이같은 적용시도는 두 가지 점에서 근본적인 문제를 고려하지 않은 면이 있다. 1) 이 두 대학의 통합이 1960년대 학생 수가 급증하고 대학이 팽창하던 시기에 이를 관리하고 근대화하고자 하는 '자연스러운' 과정에서 나온 것인 반면 한국의 대학통합논의는 학생 수의 급감으로 구조조정이 진행되는 과정에서 '인위적인' 기획으로 요구되고 있고, 2) 미국이나 프랑스의 경우 국공립이 대다수를 차지하고 있어 이같은 통합이 대학 및 교육 일반의 변화에 전체적인 영향을 준 반면 한국의 경우는 사립이 대다수이므로 국공립대 통합이 주는 효과는 매우 제한적이다. 국공립대 통합안이 전제하고 있는 대학평준화의 이념을 추구하기보다 대학특성화에 역점을 두는 것이 사회문제로서의 대학문제에 대처함에 있어서도 더 시대상황에 맞고 현실성이 있다고 판단된다. 국립대 통합보다 구조조정과정에서 사학들을 공영화하여 고등교육에 대한 국가의 공교육적 기반을 갖추도록 하는 것이 현 시점에서 더 일차적인 개혁과제라고 할 수 있다.
