초록

현재 교육시장에서 많은 교육서비스 조직 간의 경쟁이 더욱 치열해지고 있기에 대학들은 서비스를 개선하여 치열한 경쟁에서 살아남기 위한 노력을 할 필요가 있다. 대학의 생존 및 유학생 유치라는 현재의 당면과제를 해결하기 위해 본 연구는 유학생들의 대학 서비스 품질에 대한 평가가 대학 만족과 유학생들의 대학 서비스 중 인게이지먼트를 통해서 대학 충성도에 미치는 영향을 확인하기 수행되었으며 다음과 같은 몇 가지 시사점을 제시할 수 있다. 첫째, 대학 서비스 품질 차원들은 유학생들의 대학 만족에 큰 영향을 미치는 중요한 요소들로 확인되었다. 서비스 품질 차원 중에서 특히 유학생 관련 지원 서비스들이 대학 만족에 가장 중요한 변수로 나타났다. 유학생들의 불편을 해결해주고 자국의 학생들이 느끼지 못하는 어려움을 느끼는 학생들의 고충을 해결해주는 학교의 노력은 유학생들의 만족에 매우 중요한 요인으로 판단된다. 둘째, 유학생들의 수업 인게이지먼트나 교우 관계 인게이지먼트는 학교에 대한 만족을 통해서 높아질 수 있고 결국 높아진 인게이지먼트는 학교 충성도에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 유학생들에게는 수업 적인 부분보다 더 중요한 부분이 다양한 국가의 학생들과 교우 관계를 맺고 다양한 학교 프로그램에 참여하는 것을 통해서 특히 학교의 충성도가 높아질 수 있다는 점을 알 수 있었다. 마지막으로 유학목적에 따라 모형을 따라 검증 결과 학문발전 및 더 나은 취업을 위해 유학하는 집단과 해외경험 및 이민 등을 목적으로 취업하는 집단에 차이를 확인할 수 있었다. 이는 해당 목적의 유학생을 표적시장으로 정한 대학교들은 서비스 관리에 다른 방법을 활용할 필요성이 있다는 것을 의미한다.

In particular, as the current educational institutions are becoming more competitive, universities need to make efforts to survive the fierce competition by improving their service qualities. In this situation, this study was conducted to confirm the effect of international students' evaluation of university service quality on university loyalty through university satisfaction and service engagements, And several implications can be suggested as follows. First, the dimensions of university service quality were identified as important factors that had a great influence on the university satisfaction of international students. Among the service quality dimensions, support services related to international students were found to be the most important variable in university satisfaction. The school's efforts to solve the inconvenience of international students and the grievances of students who feel difficulties that their own students do not feel are considered a very important factor in the satisfaction of international students. Second, it was found that international students' class engagement or friendship engagement can be increased through satisfaction with the school, and eventually, the increased engagements affect university loyalty. In particular, it has been verified that for international students, the loyalty of the school can be increased by establishing friendships with students from various countries and participating in various school programs. Finally, according to the purposes of studying abroad, the difference was confirmed between the groups studying for academic development and better employment and the group employed for overseas experience and immigration.
