| Popis: | 104 Doctoral programs are the last stage of higher education. The stable and sustainable development is the key to maintain the quality of doctoral programs in higher education. Without proper planning and control, it could result in the imbalance of demand and supply, which would further affect the social development, social security, and national competitiveness. For the last two decades, Taiwan has experienced the booming of higher education causes the excess supply of doctors and creates serious unemployment problems. In fact, the demand and supply of PhDs in Taiwan is a complex and dynamic issue. This study uses system dynamics to explore the demand and supply of the doctorates in Taiwan. Several causal loops are proposed to help us understand system structure and explain the system behaviors. In addition, the dynamic effects of the alternative policies are simulated and the findings from these investigations are comprehensively discussed. |
