项目摘要

This study was designed to draw a comprehensive figure of external degree programs in USA and UK especially focusing on their driving forces of development and future perspectives . Actually , the institutes mainly targeted were Regents College , Thomas Edison State College and Charter Oak College in USA and External Program at University of London in UK . At the same time , it was expected to draw implications to develop the system of degree awarding at National Institution for Academic Degrees , an organization that conducts a similar external program in Japan .As result of this research of three years , several opportunities to earn credits such as matured distance education , experience learning , academic courses outside the universities are pointed as elements which construct infra structure to sustain this kind of alterative way to degrees . On the other hand , it could be said that the rigid systems of learning evaluation and requirements are key of quality of external degrees . As long as the quality was kept and assured , external degree programs could be developed in the era of universal access to higher education .In the term of implications to the development of National Institution for Academic Degrees in Japan , the design of Programs including the structure of requirement in each academic field or service to students and / or prospective students such as function of advisory in their study can be referred .

本研究旨在全面了解美国和英国的外部学位课程，特别关注其发展的驱动力和未来前景。实际上，这些机构主要是美国的摄政学院、托马斯爱迪生州立学院和宪章橡树学院以及英国伦敦大学的外部项目。与此同时，也希望能对在日本开展类似外部项目的国立大学学位授予机构的学位授予制度的发展产生影响。通过三年的研究，获得了成熟的远程教育、体验学习、大学之外的学术课程被认为是构建基础设施以支持这种替代性学位获得方式的要素。另一方面，严格的学习评价和要求制度也是影响外部学位质量的关键。只要保证质量，就可以在高等教育普及化时代发展外部学位课程。从对日本国家学位机构发展的启示来看，计划的设计，包括每个学术领域的要求结构或对学生的服务和/或或准留学生如有咨询功能，可在其学习中参考。
