연구비를 지급하는 곳은 정부출연기관, 재단, 연구소, 대학 등이 있는데 대학 자체에서 지급하는 액수는 매우 제한적이어서 연구자들은 외부에서의 연구비를 선호하는 경향이 있다. 교수의 승진에 연구 업적 평가가 필수 요소로 적용이 되고 SCI급 잡지에 논문을 발표해야 하는 등 학계에서도 '이제는 연구를 해야 한다'는 목소리가 높아지고 있다. 외부에서 지급하고 있는 연구비 현황과 현재 치과계에서 이루어지고 있는 연구 현황을 살펴보고 연구비 획득을 위한 방안 등에 살펴본다.

This study assesses research patterns and trends of library and information science(LIS) in Korea by applying bibliometric analysis. For the study, 2,400 peer-reviewed publications from 2001 to 2010(including conference proceedings) published by 159 LIS professors in Korea were analyzed by year, author, affiliation and journal. The study findings showed an increasing trend in collaboration(52.75% of total publications with single authors and 47.25% with multiple authors) among LIS professors in Korea, robust publication patterns of Korean LIS faculty(average 1.51 publications per year), and an increasing number in foreign publications(170 publications). The study results also suggested an internationalization of LIS in Korea. Specifically, the study found a higher rate of Korean LIS faculty with foreign degrees than in previous years as well as a higher publication rate of professors with international degrees. The analysis of publication patterns conducted by the study, which is a first step in our aim to establish a multi-faceted approach for assessing the impact of scholarly work, will be followed up with analysis of references and citations to evaluate the quality of publications.

National competitiveness is related directly to the strength of educational competitiveness of universities. Seoul National University (SNU) has been taking efforts to improve its competitiveness in University education in variety of ways and the classroom assessment is one key example of those. The current classroom assessment system practiced at universities is being used to evaluate courses and professors in charge by the university administration or evaluation committee. The classroom assessment system is not intended to put students and professors as the subject of the evaluation. In this case, the evaluation is intended wrongfully to rank the courses and evaluate professors' achievement by assigning grades on the lectures. Instead, a proper classroom assessment system should be targeted to improve the quality of lectures by encouraging communication among professor and students in the classroom. In this study, it was intended to investigate a suitable classroom assessment system to enhance the effectiveness of education, not to rank the courses and evaluate professors' achievement. For this purpose, research has been carried out to investigate opinions of professors at SNU on the criteria of classroom assessment and to analyze the criteria of classroom assessment at other domestic universities in Korea. The inquiries for feedback on the lecture by the student in the class was analyzed. The current classroom assessment system at SNU was reviewed and an improvement plan was devised to evaluate liberal art courses of engineering and science schools at SNU. In this research, the problems in the classroom assessment system was reviewed and improvement points were searched to utilize the classroom assessment system more effectively for the improvement of lecture quality.

2011년도 Nobel 생리(生理) 의학상(醫學賞) : 자연(自然)(선천)(先天) 면역(免疫)(innate immunity)의 활성화에 관한 연구업적으로 B. A. Beutler와 J. A. Hoffmann, 그리고 수지상세포(樹枝狀細胞)(dendritic cell; DC)발견과 적응(適應)(획득)(獲得)면역(免疫)(adaptive immunity)에 있어서의 그들 세포의 역할을 밝혀낸 R. M. Steinman의 공동수상으로 금년도 Nobel 생리 의학상 수상자가 결정되었다는 보도가 지난 10월 3일 있었다(1-3). 그들의 업적을 요약하면 대략 다음과 같다. (Steinman교수는 Nobel수상자 발표 3일전인 9월 30일 암으로 사망함). 그들은 면역기구(immune system)의 활성화의 관건(key)이 되는 원리를 밝혀냄으로써, 면역기구에 관한 우리들의 이해를 혁신하였던 것이다. 과학자들은 오랫동안 세균(bacteria)이나 기타 미생물병원체들에 의한 공격에 대비하여 그들 자신을 방어하는 사람이나 기타 동물체에서의 면역응답(免疫應答)(immune response)의 문지기들을 탐색해 왔다. Beutler와 Hoffmann은 그와 같은 병원미생물을 인식하여 생체의 면역응답의 첫 단계인 자연면역을 활성화 할 수 있는 수용체 단백질(toll-like receptor protein)을 규명한 것이다(4,5). 한편 Steinmann은 면역계의 수지상세포(DC)와 병원미생물이 생체로부터 배제되는 면역응답의 후기단계인 적응면역을 활성화하고 조절하는 그들의 독특한 재능을 규명해 낸 것이다(6-8). 그들 3명의 발명은, 면역응답의 자연 및 적응 양상(樣相)이 어떻게 활성화되는 가를 밝혀냄으로써 질병의 기전에 관한 참신한 식견(識見)을 제공한 것이다. 그들의 연구는 감염병(感染病)(infectious disease), 암(癌)(cancer) 그리고 염증성질환(炎症性疾患)(inflammatory disease)에 대응하는 예방과 치료의 개발을 위한 새로운 방법을 개척한 것이다.

University-to-industry technology transfer has become an increasingly important issue in recent years. Studies on technology transfer and commercialization evolved to diverse knowledge transfer channels. Among them, university spin-off is not only known as the most direct and tangible method but also suitable for effectively transferring tacit knowledge. Much of the studies on university spin-offs are mostly focused on macro-level but studies using the individual professors as their unit of analysis need better understanding as well. This paper investigates why the speed of university spin-off formations differ among individual professors drawing on the resource-based view. Utilizing data of 149 professors in 25 universities who formed spin-offs, Cox regression results suggest that professors' technological research capabilities, academic research capabilities and financial resources promote university spin-off formations.

Most of universities have carried out course evaluation to apply the performance appraisal for professor. But, course evaluation depends on characteristics of each class such as class size, type of lecture, evaluator's grade and so on. As the results, such characteristics of each class lead to serious bias which makes lecturers distrust the course evaluation results. Hence, we propose a equating method for the course evaluation by regression analysis which use stepwise variable selection. And we compare proposed method with the other method by Cho et al. (2009) with respect to efficiencies. Also we give the example to which the method is applied.

This study aims to suggest a new evaluating system for academic books in the field of humanities and social sciences in Korea. The data comprised the evaluating systems for researchers' academic achievements at 27 Korean and overseas universities, and questionnaire from researchers. The findings showed that academic books were rated higher twice than articles in Korean universities with various criteria. Universities in the US had no standardized systems, but publishers evaluated academic books. The UK and France had authorized organizations, REF and HCERHE, to evaluate researchers' products, whereas, in Japan, departments evaluated them without fixed systems. About 84% of Korean researchers preferred external evaluation on academic books. It is proposed to establish associations' evaluation, 'more than 200 pages and ISBN', and qualitative approach. 200-600 points can be given on books in the correlation of universities, associations, and Korea Research Foundation.

As the first step in developing the optimal co-authorship allocation method, this study investigated the co-authorship allocation standards of Korean Universities on journal publications. The study compared the standards of 27 Korean universities with Library and Information Science (LIS) departments, and analyzed author rankings generated by applying inflated, fractional, harmonic, and university standard method of co-authorship allocation to 189 Korean LIS faculty publications from 2001 to 2014. The university standards most similar to the standard co-authorship allocation method in bibliometrics(i.e. Vinkler) were those whose co-author credits summed up to 1. However, the university standards differed from Vinkler's in allocating author credits based on primary and secondary author classification instead of allocation based on author ranks. The statistical analysis of author rankings showed that the harmonic method was most similar to the university standards. However, the correlation between the university standards whose co-author credits summed up to greater than 1 and harmonic method was lower. The study results also suggested that middle-level authors are most sensitive to co-authorship allocation methods. However, even the most generous university standards of co-authorship allocation still penalizes collaborative research by reducing each co-authors credit below those of single authors. Follow-up studies will be needed to investigate the optimal method of co-authorship credit allocation.

This study examined the differences in research capability among engineering fields using the data of research support organizations involving National Research Foundation of Korea(NRF), SCI Korean Council for University Education (KCUE) and so on. The findings of the study confirm that there are statistically significant differences in research capability among selected engineering fields, and provide implications for university administrators and academic policy-makers to adopt discriminative evaluation tools for performance evaluation of university faculties in consideration of their engineering fields.
