연구비 관리제도 평가지표 개선에 관한 연구

Abstract

This research gives notice to the rapidly growing importance of research funds management system, as the investment research funds for government R&D Project have consistently increased. Furthermore, this research interprets and analyzes the result of evaluating research funds in 2013, a representative research cost control system. Finally, this study implements AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) to agencies in charge of managing the funds for research and then attempts to suggest solutions on the management policy. First, most institutions that participate in this survey maintain these regulations: dedicated organizations, research ethics regulations, labor costs, travel expenses, and overheads. However, several regulations lists such as research promotion programs, research experts’ performance satisfaction surveys, and research experts’ management are relatively inadequate. This result suggests that the research funding must ensure ‘internal’ stability of the system. Next, a policy priority shows in order based on the result from AHP: enforcements/incentives, implementing labor costs, regularly outside audits, and computer systems. Priority shown implies that research institutions put the highest value on the follow-up management. Another thing to note is that fifteen indicators’ lists show a similar importance over all, although a priority exists. This result reflects that the follow-up management of research funding is relatively more important, but the progress management and the advance infrastructure cannot easily ignored, either.
