Graduate Schools in Transition in the priority policy framework : A Fundamental Study

这项研究的目的是明确当代研究生院转型的属性，特别是从研究生的角度来看。从不同的方面，如进入研究生院，研究生院的经济-学费，奖学金，贷款-，需要培训和毕业后的职业生涯进行审查。主要结果如下：根据其他项目所做的调查分析，结合其他官方调查，对研究生院的盈利能力进行了考察。目前大学毕业生的工资比硕士班毕业生的“收支平衡”低5个百分点，比博士毕业生的“收支平衡”低12∼17个百分点。(2)模拟了未来几年R&D人员的部分需求和供给。虽然最初的预测已经由其他项目执行，但围绕研发人员市场的情况已经发生了变化。然后，再次进行了一些仿真。仿真结果表明，研发人才市场的市场条件将越来越紧张。因此，研究生院的教育变得更加灵活和合格是必要的。该项目报告是与一些同事合作编写的，涉及研究生院的不同方面的问题，如研究生的研究和培养条件，研究生院的选择以及学术生涯与研究生院教育的关系等。

The aim of the study is to make clear attributes of a contemporary transition of graduate schools, especially from the view point of graduate students. Different aspects such as entering into graduate schools, economics of graduate schools-tuition, fellowship, loan-, needs for training and careers after their graduations are examined. The principal results are as follows.(1) According to analysis of the survey that had been carried out by the other project, combined with other official surveys, profitability of graduate schools was examined.current wage rates of graduates are five percent points less than the 'break even' for master course graduates, 12 to 17 for doctor courses.(2) Some demand and supply of R&D personnel in coming years are simulated. Though the original forecast had been carried out by the other project, circumstances around the market of R&D personnel has been moved on. Then, some simulations are performed again. According to simulation results, market condition in the R&D personnel market will become increasingly tighter. So, it would be necessary that education in graduate schools becomes more flexible and qualified.The project report, which was prepared in cooperation with some colleagues, deals different aspects of problems of graduate schools, such as research and training conditions of graduate students, a selection of going on to graduate schools and relationships between a academic career and education in graduate schools, and so on.
