TRANSITION OF KNOWLEDGE PRODUCTION MODE AND THE UNIVERSITY IN POST-MASS AGE OF HIGHER EDUCATION

1.知识生产方式区分理论研究（1）考察和梳理知识生产方式区分理论与以往争论的关系。(2)调查大学科研活动的组织情况。(3)探讨与演化经济学、国家创新体系、产学合作之关系。(4)通过与国外研究者的信息交流，探讨相关论证的新阶段.进行了以下案例研究。(1)流动性强的研究人员，如博士后等。(2)产学关系中出现了新的研究组织设置，包括地方产学合作体系。(3)注重与社会联系的新兴大学教育形式，如证书。（1）对经合组织贸易政策委员会的论点进行了调查，并与经合组织官员进行了信息交流。(2)继续与国外研究者讨论模态区分理论的发展。(3)研究了分拆企业的国际趋势.结论知识生产系统的变迁对知识社会中的大学产生了影响。它的影响范围从大学的教育和研究到大学的组织。例如，研究活动的变化、产学结合的变化、教育课程的模块化、认证的转变以及由此带来的结构性变化。这些现象被视为大学与社会的重新接合。

1. Theoretical Study of Mode Distinction of Knowledge Production(1) To investigate and to reorganize relationship between the Mode distinction theory and preceding arguments.(2) To investigate the organization of research activities in the university.(3) To investigate and to reorganize relationship with Evolutionary Economics, National Innovation System, and University-Industry Collaboration.(4) To investigate a new stage of relevant arguments through information exchange with foreign researchers.2. Case StudiesFollowing case studies were conducted.(1) Highly fluid researchers such as post-doctoral fellow, etc.(2) New settings of research organizations appeared in university-industry relationship, including local system of university-industry collaboration.(3) Emerging forms of university education focusing on links with society, such as certificate.3. Investigation of Global Trends(1) Investigation of arguments in OECD-CSTP was conducted, as well as information exchange with OECD officers was done.(2) Discussion about development in mode distinction theory with foreign researchers has been continued.(3) International trends of spin-off firms were investigated.4. ConclusionThe project concludes : The transition of knowledge production system affects the university in the knowledge society. Its influence ranges from education and research in the university to organization of the university. For example, we can find the changes in research activities, changes derived from university-industry linkage, shifts of education curriculum to modules, transformation of certification, and structural changes brought by those changes. Such phenomena are seen as re-articulation of university and society.
