The operatiive model of research base biotechnology company in Taiwan

Dung, Yao 31 August 2004 (has links)
The revolution of information technology industry pumped the pulsation of world economic around the end of last century. Taiwan endured fairly well, and acquired a distinguish outcome. Nevertheless, at the dawn of new century, major developed countries have reached a consensus that Biotechnology industry will be one of the subsequent main stream industries in future global economics. How can Taiwan surf on the tide and succefully adapt the alteration again? The key resolution is mainly relied upon closely collaboration among Industrial, Official and Academic sectors. The vital and dynamic Taiwanese entrepreneur well trained and superb research capability Academics and strategytic support from Government are the key factors, which launch Taiwan succefully amongst this international Biotech industrial competition. The transformation from experimental result into products with market value will be the power plant for forthcoming Taiwanese Biotech industry. In consequence, the thesis will be focused on elucidating the business models for research based Biotech Company. The thesis explicates the definition of Biotechnology and Biotechnology Company, judicial issues in Biotechnology Industry, management and marketing of Biotechnology Company. The conclusion will be obtained from the comparison and analysis among vivid cases of researched based Biotechnology Companies. Further suggestion will also be made in according with that conclusion. In this thesis, thoroughly utilizes his core competence, appropriate financial structure; forecast of industrial features and accurate prediction of market trend lead Wu Din Biotch. into a succeful case. Nevertheless, Digital gene Co. and Phytohealth Co. failed in unable to fulfill above requirement.

A Content Analysis of Student Conduct Codes

Martin, Janice Earlene 28 April 2004 (has links)
Scholars in the field of student judicial affairs have recommended that institutions remove all legal terminology and references in student conduct codes and create codes based on student development theory and practice (Dannells, 1997; Gehring, 2001; Stoner & Cerminara 1990; Stoner, 2000). The purpose of this study was to analyze student conduct codes to determine the extent to which college and university administrators have adopted Stoner and Cerminara, Gehring, and Pavela's suggestions. This study is a content analysis of student conduct codes. The data were collected by using a stratified randomly selected group of Carnegie classified institutions and examining the student conduct code for each institution from the respective institution's website. Descriptive statements were used to code and analyze the data. The study results show that only 20% of the institutions in the study had taken the advice of the judicial scholars and removed all legalistic language. Therefore, the majority of the institutions in this study, regardless of institutional type or size, need to reexamine and modify their student conduct codes. / Master of Arts

Alcohol and College Students: Do Parents Matter?

Jeffes, Errin J. 12 May 2001 (has links)
Higher education in America has attempted to define the relationships it has with both students and parents for many years. While some argue that the philosophy of in loco parentis has seemingly disappeared, others suggest that its return is imminent on American college campuses. One example of this return is the trend among campuses towards notifying parents when students are involved in judicial matters. Recent changes in federal privacy laws have clarified the right of colleges and universities to notify parents when their son or daughter is involved in a violation of the university alcohol policy. There is an assumption that parents will intervene with their students and help the university promote a more responsible use of alcohol. Many colleges are debating the value of such notifications, but little is known as to whether or not the inclusion of parents in university discipline affects the decisions college students make about their alcohol consumption. The present study used qualitative and quantitative means to address this gap in literature. Students whose parents were notified of their alcohol violation were interviewed in the qualitative component of the study. The interviews explored the relationships between students and parents before entering college, immediately after enrolling in college, and after parental notification. Students were then assigned positions within three categories of parenting styles (General Relationships, Level of Parental Involvement, and Parental Attitudes Toward Alcohol) for the three time periods explored in this study. The quantitative component explored students' experience with alcohol during the same three time periods. Students completed a pencil and paper survey about their drinking behaviors and were assigned to categories of alcohol consumption for each time period. This enabled the researcher to evaluate whether certain parenting styles were associated with certain drinking patterns. In addition, the researcher examined the results to identify trends in parental relationships and alcohol consumption over the three time periods in question. The study revealed some interesting findings. First, parent and student relationships appear to improve over time, while the parents' Level of Involvement with their student remains the same. Second, during all time periods, the participants indicated that their parents had little control over their alcohol consumption. Third, while students may have experienced frustration with the parental notification process, most were comfortable with the concept of parents being notified when students have violated university policy with respect to alcohol. Finally, most students came to college with experience drinking alcohol, and most had parents who were permissive in their attitudes towards drinking once students arrived at college. Although the study examined only a limited number of students, the results indicate that universities may want to re-evaluate the way in which they educate students about alcohol. / Master of Arts

Judicial affairs: history, moral development, and the critical role of students

Krapfl, Kristen A. January 1900 (has links)
Master of Science / Department of Special Education, Counseling and Student Affairs / Kenneth F. Hughey / Judicial affairs play an integral role in the functioning of an institution and in the moral development of students. Thus, it is critical to have an understanding of the structures that are utilized, how to choose the most effective structure for one’s specific institution, and how to successfully bring about the moral and ethical development of students. The purpose of this report is to examine the judicial structures that are in place at institutions of higher education and their impact on students. Topics discussed include the history of discipline and current judicial structures that are commonly utilized (e.g., legalistic, collaborative, honor codes, and restorative justice), how they function, and if an ideal judicial structure exists. In addition, the report addresses the theoretical foundations of moral and ethical development through the work of Gilligan (1982), Kohlberg (1964), Perry (1981), and Piaget (1965), and provides perspectives and insight on the judicial process from both judicial and student affairs administrators as well as students who have experienced the process. The findings presented in the report include the transition from judicial systems run by administrators to those run primarily by students, and the importance of understanding theories of student moral development despite the process that is chosen. Also noted are the significant impact of a student’s moral development on their perceptions of the process and on their resultant behaviors, and the role the campus environment plays in regards to behavior and discipline. Additionally, the findings convey the importance of employing judicial structures that are effective for the student population at the institution, and not subscribing to a one-size-fits-all model. Finally, the crucial role of evaluation and continual improvement in creating an effective structure, and the implications for future practice that come from this are discussed.
