Organization of University in a Changing University-Industry Relationship

Abstract

Restructuring of higher education is one of the most lively debated topics in Turkey. Most universities in Turkey expressed their opinions on restructuring of higher education by approaching the issue in a more general way. In this paper, we approach this issue from a more specific angle by focusing on university-industry relations. Technological advancement and globalization have substantial effects on the structure of the university and the industry. How should the university system be organized in such an environment? This paper aims at answering this question by making suggestions that could be useful in the ongoing debate about restructuring of higher education system in Turkey.

Değişen Üniversite-Sanayi İşbirliğinde Üniversite Örgütlenmesi

Abstract

Yükseköğretim sisteminin yeniden yapılandırılması Türkiye’deki en hararetli tartışma konularından birisidir. Pek çok üniversite bu konudaki görüşlerini, genel yapılanmanın ne şekilde olması gerektiği konusunda ayrıntılı bilgiler içeren raporlar vasıtasıyla açıklamışlardır. Bu makale geleceğin üniversite örgütlenmesine üniversite-sanayi ilişkileri özelinde yaklaşmaktadır. Teknolojik gelişme ve küreselleşme hem üniversitenin hem de sanayinin işleyişinde köklü değişikliklere neden olmaktadır. Bu ortamda üniversite örgütlenmesi nasıl olmalıdır? Bu makalede yükseköğretim sisteminin yeniden yapılandırılması konusundaki tartışmalara katkısı olacağını düşündüğümüz önerilerde bulunarak bu soruya yanıt aranmaktadır.
