臺灣提升大學畢業生就業之政策設計分析

Abstract

臺灣近年積極透過政策，縮短高等教育學用落差，努力協助大學生和職場的順利接軌。本研究依據公共政策設計理論，探究政府處理大學畢業生就業議題之政策機制與問題。研究者首先依據文獻，建構用以分析教育政策設計的理論架構。隨後，依據此一理論架構針對相關政策文件進行內容分析，進而釐清2005年以來我國政府為提升大學生就業所採取之政策設計特性。研究發現，我國政府就這項政策議題，展現出混合著強制型與調控型的政策設計特性，其中有多項政策設計要素彼此不相協調的問題，特別是在政策設計一致性與配合性兩方面實有改善空間。文章最後針對政策執行實務與未來研究議題，依據研究結果提出建議。

Taiwan has made effort to improve the employment of college graduates by promoting policies for bridging the gap between higher education and the labor market since the 2000s. From the perspective of public policy theories, this study aims to unfold the mechanisms and problems of the design criteria for the government addressing the policy issue. This study firstly devises a theoretical framework for analyzing research questions regarding policy design. Secondly, the study applies the framework to examine the governmental measures introduced since 2005. Based on the context analysis, the study identifies the features of policy design for enhancing the employment of college graduates in Taiwan. The combination of the steering mode and the coercive mode raises concerns about consistency and congruency on the elements of policy design. Finally, this paper provides suggestions for the practices of policy implementation and future research.
