Performance and Implications of University Innovation Support Project through University Quantitative Indicators

Objectives This study analyzed the performance of university innovation support projects through quantitative in-dicators of universities. Methods A paired t-test method and one-way analysis of variance were used as research methods. Results As a result of the analysis, the acquisition rate of full-time teachers and the recruitment rate of students were lower than before the university innovation support project, while the education cost reduction rate, the total number of courses per student, the appropriateness of the lecture size, the recruitment rate of new students, and the employment rate of graduates were higher than before the university innovation support project. The recruit-ment rate of enrolled students and the employment rate of graduates were higher in the metropolitan area than in the non-metropolitan area. According to the university size, there was no difference in the rate of change in all indicators except for the enrollment rate, and in the case of the enrollment rate, large universities performed better than those that did not. Conclusions This study is significant in that it has confirmed that the university innovation support project is ach-ieving quantitative as well as qualitative performance of various university innovations, and balances according to university regional conditions and size.
