사립대학의 자율적 재정투자와 교육성과: 1주기 대학혁신지원사업을 중심으로

초록

The purpose of this study was to analyze the effectiveness of the University Innovation Support Project, which began after the university financial support project was restructured from 2019. In order to analyze whether the effectiveness of financial investment has been achieved through the discretionary project costs, which is the direction of the project, the impact of university innovation support project funds on educational performance was first examined. Second, it was analyzed whether universities with a high proportion of university innovation support expenditure in education area (High Group) strengthened the relationship between educational performance and university institutional factors compared to the lower proportion (Low Group). As a result of the analysis, the university innovation support projects funds increased the employment rate of graduates, resulting in positive results in improving educational performances. In other words, the effectiveness of the University Innovation Support Project, which sets discretionary financial investment of universities as its direction, was confirmed. In addition, in universities (High Group) with a high proportion of financial investment in the education sector, the positive (+) relationship between the ‘full-time faculty ratio’ and the ‘educational expenditure per student’ and the ‘Graduates employment rate’ was strengthened. In other words, universities with a high rate of investment in education (High Group) can be interpreted as improving educational performance through efforts to improve the ‘full-time faculty ratio’ and ‘Educational expenditure per student’, which are key performance indicators of the project. This study is significant in that it partially confirmed the effectiveness of discretionary financial investment, which is the direction of the University Innovation Support Projects. In addition, the Ministry of Education reported that major indicators of educational conditions such as the ‘full-time faculty ratio’ and ‘education refund rate’ have improved as major achievements of the first cycle of University Innovation Support Project, and the results of this study can be said to provide empirical evidence to support this claim.
