“…Lambooy gives an overview of the different types of economic effects as indicated in Table 3 [26]. Originally, the impact on the region was mostly assessed through employment in the university and the expenditures from students, using regional multipliers [27,28]. Subsequently, Biggar Economics [29] also included KT activities.…”

Developing a Tool for Quality and Accreditation of a New Generation University in the Digitalized Society: The Case of a Thematic-Technical University

et al. 2019

In Turkey, digitalization of curricula, teachers, course materials, and educational technologies is relatively slower when compared with the ones in economic sectors and state services in general. In this study, we proposed a model for a new generation university in a digitalized society. The Council of Higher Education classifies universities in three categories (mission) to respond to technological and economic developments in the societal life: research, regional-development oriented and thematic universities. At national level, a digital transformation office acts as a coordination and orchestration body among governmental institutions in order to carry and transform public services into digital environment. The private sector naturally has to be digitalized by national and international severe competition. The tool developed in this study based on the model developed by Toprak et al. (2019). That model aims to compensate for coordination gaps in the traditional university hierarchical structure, which is designed as department, faculty board, university board and senate, from administration to governance. Five innovations can be mentioned in terms of organizational and functional configuration of a university model proposed there: (i) profile of graduate and mission of the new generation university in the fields of education, research and community services, (ii) policy development and implementation offices, (iii) university ecosystem consultation and steering committee and other committees and boards, (iv) concept courses and branded courses, (v) coop education and solution partnerships. The Rector’s Office acts as an executive committee to prevent coordination gap in the proposed model. A checklist has been developed for the processing of that model and hence it is made possible to measure the performance of an applied university and degree of compatibility with the model. Thus, the framework and content of the mechanism and tools traditionally used in quality assurance and accreditation will need to be updated in line with this model.

“…En France, les résultats de Strasbourg (GAGNOL et HÉRAUD, 2001), Rennes (BASLÉ et LE BOULCH, 1999) Il est possible de faire une comparaison au niveau national à partir de l'impact total par étudiant. Dans KOTOSZ et al (2015), selon les études de cas américains, l'impact par étudiant varie entre 15 000 et 50 000 euros, résultats obtenus par la méthode input-output. En Europe occidentale, il ne monte qu'à hauteur de 10 000 à 20 000 euros (mais seulementstrictement net -4 000 euros à Strasbourg 3 selon GAGNOL et HÉRAUD, 2002) ; toutefois en Europe orientale, il est au-dessous de 10 000 euros.…”
