  • This study aims to examine the level of students' satisfaction toward the services (i.e. accommodation facilities, transportation facilities, and recreation and sports facilities) provided by the public universities in Bangladesh. The study also aims to identify the major service factors that influence students' satisfaction in public universities in the country. A cross-sectional survey was conducted at six public universities to obtain primary data. A standardized questionnaire was distributed to a total of 500 randomly selected students to collect the data. Several statistical tools, namely, reliability analysis, descriptive statistics, correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis were employed to analyze the data. The findings revealed that recreation and sports facilities have the strongest impact on students' satisfaction in the public universities in Bangladesh. Transportation facilities also have positive and significant impact on student's satisfaction. However, the study found a negative correlation between accommodation facilities and students' satisfaction indicating that students are not satisfied with the accommodation facilities provided by the public universities. The findings of this study provide an insight about students' satisfaction that might be useful to authorities of the public universities and other higher educational institutions in designing policies for various services and facilities to be provided to their students.

  • The current higher education in Vietnam demonstrates the intense competition among local universities. Undoubtedly, the issue of enhancing the brand value to attract students is now placed at the top to Vietnamese universities. The research aims to identify the objective and subjective factors affecting the brand value of private universities in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam as mediated by students' perceptions. This paper employs the mixed research methods and data were then analyzed by measuring Cronbach's Alpha coefficient for reliability, analyzing EFA, and using PATH model to test the experiment on the research model affecting HUTECH's brand value. Probability sampling used is Stratified sampling and 500 students of 8 faculties of HUTECH surveyed by convenience sampling. Additionally, this paper also proposes some managerial implications on enhancing the brand value of private universities in Ho Chi Minh City. The results indicate that the new factor, namely geographic location is the most influential factor to enhance the brand value of private universities in general and HUTECH in particular. Brand still plays a determinant role in students' trust when choosing a university. Finally, some implications proposed to enhance the brand value of private universities in Ho Chi Minh City in the context of fierce competition in attracting students.

  • Today rapidly changing internal and external environment of the universities such as the reduction of freshmen quota forces most universities to be facing a dangerous existence. It is an urgent thing for the universities to secure finance and good students. Because it was thought that to know freshmen's recognition of their choice of colleges would serve to establish the screening system of each university, we studied it through the survey of the freshmen in some universities. We randomly chose some national universities, private universities and educational universities to investigate who are responsible for their choice of colleges. It is shown that the influence of their high school teachers upon their students’ choosing universities is no more than 10%. As a result, the establishment of proper policy of admission to each university on its own that makes use of the characteristics of the region and the university will be effective in choosing good students.

  • 최근 서울 소재 사립대학들을 중심으로 외국인 유학생의 비중이 빠르게 증가하고 있다. 본 논문은 정원 및 등록금 규제 하에 대학의 재정건전성이 악화된 점이 이러한 현상의 한 가지 원인이라는 가설을 제기하고 그 타당성을 이론 및 실증적으로 분석한다. 이를 위해 대학의 학생선발 모형을 구성하고 대학의 재정건전성 악화가 외국인 유학생의 증가를 초래할 수 있음을 이론적으로 논의한다. 또한 2008~2019년 중 전국의 149개 대학의 학생 및 재정 정보를 연도별로 연결한 패널 자료를 이용하여 서울 소재 사립대학들의 경우 대학 재정의 악화가 외국인 유학생의 증가에 영향을 미쳤음을 실증적으로 검증한다.

  • Background: Smokeless tobacco consumption is one of the causes of oral cancer. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of smokeless tobacco consumption among male students of Zahedan universities and associated factors in 2012. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 431 students were selected from the universities of Zahedan using multi-stage random cluster sampling. The data collection tool was a questionnaire including questions about demographic information, history of smokeless tobacco consumption, and awareness of smokeless tobacco hazards. Data were analyzed by SPSS19 using Chi-square test and multinomial logistic regression, with p<0.05 considered significant. Results: At the time of conducting this study, 102 students (23.7%) had already consumed smokeless tobacco and 49 students (11.4%) were current users (consuming at least once in 30 days before the study). There was a significant relationship between history of smokeless tobacco consumption, university/college, place of living, mean GPA, and mother's education level (p<0.05). Also there was a significant association between knowledge and prevalence of smokeless tobacco use (p<0.001). Conclusions: There is a relatively high prevalence of smokeless tobacco consumption among the male students of universities of Zahedan, which shows the need to emphasize the provision and implementation of prevention programs in universities.

  • Private universities are going through difficulties in improving facilities for the disabled students due to financial reasons. Extension elevators, grips on both sides of the hallways for the visually disabled, handrails on the walls of ramps and stairs in the existing building, and improvement of the dormitory chambers are some items of such facilities in this analysis of MyongJi University. Hence, financial support based on the long-term plans and evaluations from the National Treasury to private universities with financial stringencies, will be a critical promotion in appropriating educational budgets and executing corresponding funds. This will eventually bring equal development of educational welfare for the disabled students among national, public, and private universities.

  • Background: In 2013, legislation in Vietnam regulated smoking in public areas. Included was a ban on indoor smoking at universities. Objective: Since awareness and attitude are moderators of the effectiveness of smoke-free policy, ou aim was to assess changes in students' knowledge and attitude tosecond hand smoke (SHS) and awareness and support of smoke-free legislation at four Vietnamese universities, one year after legislative changes. Methods: A two-phase cross sectional study of undergraduate students using self-administered questionnaires (based on the Global Adult Tobacco Survey and the Thrasher survey) was conducted at the introduction of the legislation and one year thereafter. Results: One-year post legislation there were significant increases in knowledge of smoke-free legislation and awareness of universities as smoke-free environments. There was a significant increase in knowledge of harmful effects of SHS on diseases such as examples in the heart and lung, including lung cancer, and miscarriage. Students expressed strong support of smoke-free environments in universities, hospitals, schools, workplaces, public transport, libraries, cinemas and theatres; support was also increased post legislation. Changes were seen in attitude to SHS, and rights of non-smokers and smokers. Conclusions: Positive changes have occurred in knowledge and attitude toward smoke-free environments and SHS in universities since enactment of Vietnamese tobacco control legislation.

  • 20대를 대상으로 하였던 대학이 최근에는 운영방식, 설립목적, 교육대상이 다양화되었다. 대학의 수에 비해 급격한 학령인구의 감소로 대학(과)은 신입생의 확보와 재학생의 중도탈락 최소화를 위해 최선의 노력을 기울이고 있다. 본 연구는 2년제와 4년제 일반대학과 원격대학의 미용관련 학과 재학생을 대상으로 전공선택동기와 소속감이 학업지속의도에 미치는 효과를 실증하기 위해 온라인 설문을 진행하였다. 일반대학 119명, 원격대학 113명에게 수집된 자료를 SPSS.28를 이용해 분석한 주요한 결과를 요약하면, 일반대학은 전공선택동기는 학업지속의도에 미치는 영향이 유의미하지 않았으나 소속감은 유의미한 정(+)의 효과를 미쳤다. 또한, 소속감이 높아지면 외적동기는 학업지속의도를 유의미하게 상승시키는 조절효과가 나타났다. 원격대학은 전공선택동기 중 내적동기와 소속감이 학업지속의도에 유의미한 정(+)의 효과가 나타났으며 전공선택동기와 학업지속의도의 관계에서 소속감의 조절효과는 유의미하지 않았다. 결과적으로 재학생의 학업지속의도에 있어 일반대학은 대학(과)의 소속감이 주요했으며 원격대학은 내적동기가 주요했다. 이러한 결과는 재학생의 중도탈락 예방을 위한 대학(과)의 효과적인 정책 수립을 위한 의미있는 자료가 될 것으로 기대된다.
