Riding the tiger of world University rankings in East Asia: where are we heading?
International Journal of Educational Management, 2014Co-Authors: Philip HallingerAbstract:Purpose – The region's universities are “riding a tiger” of University rankings in East Asian higher education, in a race to gain in the list of the world's top 100 universities. While this race impacts universities throughout the world, it takes on particular importance in East Asia due to the stage of University Development and the needs of regional societies. The purposes of this paper are to: To examine the emergent global emphasis on world University ranking as a driver of change in higher education, To discuss how the world University rankings are impacting East Asian universities, To assess consequences for higher education in the region, To explore options for leading universities in a more meaningful direction in East Asia. Design/methodology/approach – This paper examines research and commentary on the impact of world University rankings on universities in East Asia. Findings – This paper proposes that the world University rankings have, over a relatively short period of time, had unanticipated ...

The entrepreneurial University as driver for economic growth and social change : Key strategic challenges
Technological Forecasting and Social Change, 2019Co-Authors: Magnus Klofsten, Alain Fayolle, Maribel Guerrero, Sarfraz Mian, David Urbano, Mike WrightAbstract:Limitations of the research on the various leadership and strategic issues facing universities seeking to become more entrepreneurial has led this special issue to focus on the management, Development, and implementation of this vision. We have solicited original research on the strategic challenges that these universities currently encounter. Researchers in management and related disciplines have contributed to this field of inquiry, which is having growing implications for our universities and stakeholders in the social and economic spheres. We begin by tracing an overarching framework, to which we add brief descriptions of the contributing papers in this special issue. To conclude, we outline future research goals and discuss how, around the world, academic actors involved in University Development - such as University managers and policy makers - could view the ideas presented here.

University Development Models and Efficiency Analysis
Journal of Service Science, 2009Co-Authors: Jong-woun Youn, Kwangtae ParkAbstract:The purpose of this study is to suggest strategic solutions for the growth and Development of universities by establishing University Development models which can reflect the reality of Korean universities. These models are determined by the domestic and international trends in structural reforms of universities as well as the government policy toward University specialization. In order to apply these University Development models effectively as efficient and outcome-oriented systems, we have taken an analytical approach to the essential resources which universities possess.

University Development models and efficiency analysis
Journal of Service Science, 2009Co-Authors: Jong-woun Youn, Kwangtae ParkAbstract:The purpose of this study is to suggest strategic solutions for the growth and Development of universities by establishing University Development models which can reflect the reality of Korean universities. These models are determined by the domestic and international trends in structural reforms of universities as well as the government policy toward University specialization. In order to apply these University Development models effectively as efficient and outcome-oriented systems, we have taken an analytical approach to the essential resources which universities possess. We suggest four Development models which emphasize the education and research aspect of the universities. These four models are the knowledge-specific, the knowledge-expanding, the knowledge-learning, and finally the knowledge-replenishing model. The subsequent analysis of the efficiency of sixty Korean universities is used to verify the validity of each suggested Development model.

service University Development encountering lithuanian idealist rationalist norm legacies
2004Co-Authors: Arild TjeldvollAbstract:Universities internationally seem to be in a state of deep transition. Recruitment, financing and relationships with various user groups show a transitory tendency. One image of “new” universities emerging is the Service University. Viewing it as a Weberian ideal type, this University’s mission, production of knowledge and ways of organizing learning for students ‐ as well as its governance, organization and management are increasingly functions of the competence needs of a global knowledge economy. However, this converging trend internationally is significantly modified by specif ic University traditions of different countries and cu ltural regions. In the western world, there have, broadly speaking, been three dominant norm traditions of University Development; the idealist German/Humboldt-tradition, the pragmatic/American tradition and the rationalist/Communist tradition. In the latter the ideological and economic needs of th e State set the agenda for the University’s organizat ion and production, to some degree modified by preCommunist traditions. Today’s Service University seems to reflect rationalist norms. However, now it is less the State, and more the Market that dictates production and organization. In this paper the Lithuanian higher education’s idealist and rational ist legacies are contrasted to the international Servic e University trends, trying to ponder about effects o f these legacies on the country’s present day higher education policies. In conclusion it is assumed tha t market rationalism will be the dominant independent variable. The rationalist logic is the same for Communism and Market: The University is an instrument for their needs, ideological and/or economical. The Market is seeing the University as a tool for its needs for new knowledge and new competence to stay competitive in the ever-changing global market. Simultaneously, the particular stren gth of Lithuanian culture, not least represented by the Church and a broad societal consciousness about conditions for national identity may make Lithuanian governments more faithful financial patrons of cert ain core humanity subjects at key national institutions . Hence, it is assumed that Lithuania has specific historical and cultural conditions for being able t o develop a Service University with academic quality ‐ while less fortunate nations may loose the universi ty as an institution and be left with a knowledge enterpr ise. The knowledge enterprise is not admitting responsibility for research and learning about basi c human values, democracy and civilisation. It is a t ool
