In the past decade, the number of universities and colleges grew rapidly. The nature of the advanced education has also changed substantially. The change of the elite education into the democratic education could remove the pressure for students to enter a higher and more prestigious educational institute, but it causes the financial problems on the government and also the deterioration of educational quality. It leads to the dispute about distribution and application of university¡¦s resources, promotion of the university¡¦s competitiveness and the diversification of advanced education. Due to the fierce competition of the advanced education environment that grows gradually, the performance of operation and management of national universities become more important.
This research chose one national technical university as the sample to discuss its performance management system and applied the concept of Balanced Scorecard on the case based on the characteristics of the school, so that it can design an appropriate performance management system, which is exclusively suitable for every different school. This research conducted interviews and distributed questionnaires for a further discussion. After compiling the results from interviews and questionnaires and information gathered from literature review, the main conclusion could be summarized as follows:
1. The current performance management system of the case school is not complete. It could not integrate long-term strategies and the bonus system properly that should be improved.
2. The performance management system of Balanced Scorecard¡¦s framework could fully carry out the strategies of the research case school. It helps promote the cooperation between departments, solve the difficulties the university is facing, and it is efficient to deal with the future changes of the advanced education.
3. The most representative performance measurement indexes of each perspective of the research case school include ¡§the ranking of students joint recruiting¡¨ for customer perspective, ¡§the rate of freshmen¡¦s enrollment¡¨ for financial perspective, and ¡§the satisfaction of in-campus learning environment¡¨ for internal business process perspective. As for the learning and growth perspective, ¡§the willingness of cooperation required for both the ability and position of faculty¡¨ can represent the index.
4. National universities always have distinguishing features, prospect and the projects of middle-long term. Using four perspectives of Balanced Scorecard to establish measuring criterion and standards that can build a well consideration and direction for action-project of competition for school¡¦s strategies. In this study, we found that the four different perspectives can obtain a uniform chance for development by questionnaires from directors of the case school and experts of the universities in south area. From interviewers, we also got the results that the Balanced Scorecard can be used in other national universities. Based on reasonable performance results, the Balanced Scorecard could be applied for all national universities.
The conclusion could be a reference for the research case school to apply the Balanced Scorecard on the performance management system in the future, so that when the university encounters the impacts of fast-paced society, it could adopt the appropriate methods and respond in real time. The process and method adopted in this research could also provide the national universities a reference to develop their own perfect performance management system.
