Outline

 To ensure the accountability of government spending for higher education, showing educational outcomes to the public is a common challenge, and in recent years, large-scale surveys of students/alumni are being conducted in countries around the world. In this symposium, we invite guest speakers from the U.K., U.S. and South Korea who have been involved in such projects. We anticipate in-depth discussion about policy outcomes and challenges in implementation based on the experiences of each country.
