The Role of the University: Megacompetition in Higher Education and Collaboration with Industry

1. The Role of the University: Megacompetition in Higher Education and Collaboration with Industry Yuichiro AnzaiPresident, Keio University 2006.6.23 APRU FORUM BREAKFAST MEETING

2. Megacompetition and Collaboration From Where and To Where • Megacompetition in Higher Education • Globalization: Development of social, economic and political systems beyond borders • Digitalization: Development of high-speed digitalized communication, data storage and information processing • Sharing knowledge: Ideas are shared by global community as soon as they are generated and publicized • Financial pressure: Universities inevitably compete due to financial pressures • Collaboration with Industry • Globalization: Industries themselves are faced with global competition • Digitalization: Collaboration can be much more efficient than before • Sharing knowledge: Universities and Industries can share knowledge for mutual interests; not only for science and technology but also for economic and legal issues • Financial pressure: Both universities and industries face financial pressures • Innovation through competition and collaboration

3. Innovation through University-Industry Collaboration • Knowledge Source Model University as Source of Knowledge Industry University • Knowledge Interaction Model Interaction of University and Industry Industry University • Knowledge Globalization Model University and Industry in Knowledge-Sharing Global Community Value of original ideas: IP and Standards Real-time collaboration for global interests Industry University

4. Innovation by Pacific Rim Universities • Merits of Pacific Rim Universities for Innovation • Diversity of human resources • Diversity of cultures • Diversity and potential affluence of markets • Abundanceof challenging problems to be discovered and to be solved: e.g., medical care, infrastructure, energy, environment, transportation, disaster prevention, security, communication, everyday life support, legal systems, economic systems, finance and management, fiscal policy, educational systems … • Possibilities for new educational systems: can be relatively free from conventional style of higher education • Motivation for economic growth and its sustainability • 　・・・

5. Basic Roles of Sectors in Collaboration and Innovation • University, Industry and (Central and Local) Government • University： Should generate innovative, generic research results, motivated by goals for mid- or long-range social profit, not by goals for solving toy problems. • Industry： Should generate innovative ideas and management systems for developing social and industrial applications, business models and markets, motivated by goals for short- or mid-range social profit, not by goals for expecting innovation only to universities. • Government： Should generate innovative policies and systems of financial support that truly encourage and promote open and deregulated collaboration between universities and industries. • Requirements for Universities • Education: Active introduction of problem-based learning, internship in industries, collaboration with venture firms and other not-in-the-classroom methodologies of education, but absolutely with learning of robust and comprehensive knowledge • Research: See above. • Knowledge: Active role-taking as sites of knowledge creation and distribution • Intellectual property: Sophisticated innovation, and active collaboration with industry, for sharing knowledge in the global community • International and domestic standards: Active participation in generating benefits for the global community, both in de jure, and in de facto, manners
