  • According to the influence of the LINC project initiated by the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology in 2011, the number of 'University-Industry Collaboration Faculty' has been sharply increased for the last five years. It is viewed that university-industry collaboration faculty have played a prime role for promoting the university-industry collaboration. However, there is a potential threat that about 70 per cents of total expense needed for maintaining the university-industry collaboration faculty system are dependent upon finances of the LINC project. There is a concern that the university-industry collaboration faculty system will be disappeared, if a university or college fails to be selected in the LINC project or the government decides to suspend the LINC project. In order to grasp the realities and policy alternatives on the university-industry collaboration faculty system, this paper conducts a literature survey, a questionnaire survey, the in-depth interviews with experts and the persons concerned. Based on the results of the survey, we suggest policy implications in terms of legal, financial and structural dimensions.

  • As the role of universities as a civic university contributing to regional development has been emphasized, industry-academic cooperation projects are increasingly focused on quadruple helix interactions of university, government, business and civic society. Drawing upon focus group interviews, we divided place-based industry-academic cooperation projects into four different types and stages of development, according to two indicators of network participation and network strength. Although the proportion of projects that were in the early stages of development was overwhelmingly high, some universities developed a close cooperative system with the local community to enhance the effectiveness of the industry-academic cooperation projects and to implement them in an advanced stage. These findings suggest that the LINC+ project, which has been criticized for its policy effectiveness, will not only contribute to enhancing policy effectiveness through place-based projects but also enhance the role of universities as the main body of regional innovation.
