FY2017 Designated Survey Projects
In fiscal 2017, we set the following designated research topics and conducted research on them.
theme | Empirical Research on the Significance and Effects of Academic Exchange -Toward a proposal for a place for academic exchange that takes advantage of the charm of “Kyoto as a university town and Kyoto as a student town”- |
researcher | Yoshie Inoue (Associate Professor, Faculty of Policy Studies, Ryukoku University) (Principal Investigator) Hiroki Shino (Professor, Faculty of Contemporary Social Studies, Kyoto Sangyo University) Kiyohide Yamatani (Research Associate, Faculty of Policy Studies, Doshisha University) Tomomi Kubo (Postdoctoral Researcher, Research Center for Regional Public Human Resources and Policy Development, Ryukoku University) |
Background and Objectives of the Research | The University Consortium Kyoto has been holding the “Policy Research Exchange Conference from Kyoto (hereinafter referred to as the Policy Research Exchange Conference)” as a place for academic exchange at universities in Kyoto Prefecture, and 2016 marked the 12th time. Currently, the emphasis is on “presentations” and has not reached the level of academic “exchange” beyond the boundaries of universities. In addition, since the majority of the participants are university faculty members and university students, it lacks the perspective of “how the local community received the results of the research.” Questionnaires are also conducted for participants, but many of the questions are general and highly abstract, and are not designed to identify areas for improvement to promote academic exchange. Therefore, we are aware of the issues of (1) the lack of “exchange” and “on-the-ground” at the Policy Research Exchange Conference, and (2) the necessity of conducting a questionnaire survey focusing on academic exchange, and we will conduct this survey with the aim of solving these two issues. |
