本研究透過文獻探討與問卷調查,探討目前我國高等教育行銷的實施現況,及分析其實施的成效、實施困境與困境的因應之道,並根據研究發現與結論,提出建議,供相關機構及人員參考。此外,本論文主要研究對象是我國高等教育的教務長、招生組長、行政人員和教師,共抽得75所學校,發出750份問卷,實得有效樣本365份,問卷處理採用SPSS for Window統計套裝軟體進行統計分析。
綜合文獻探討與問卷調查所得資料,得到以下結論
一、研究結論
1.大學校院實施教育行銷的程度不高,屬於中等。
2.大學校院所採用的教育行銷策略,以定位策略最常被使用,目標市場策略次之,組合策略最低。
3.大學校院進行教育行銷,並未確實落實教育行銷的規劃程序,各步驟的實施程度均為「有時如此」。
4.大學校院大都有採取定位策略,且分別依自己的特色為考量,而其中又以將自己定位為綜合型大學的學校最多。
5. 大學校院選擇學生的區隔標準中,以學生的志向興趣所佔比例最高,學生的居住地區最低。
6.大學校院使用的推廣方式非常多元,但大部分的實施程度都不高,大多不超過五成,其中以將本校訊息上網公告所最常使用,利用電視廣告打響知名度最少。
7.大學校院運用組合策略時,所使用的方式頗為多樣化,但是程度大多僅屬於「中」等,還有加強空間。而其中以設備策略最常被使用,價格策略最低。
8.大學校院實施教育行銷多已發揮中等程度效果,但仍有加強必要。
9.大學校院教育行銷的實施困境頗大,多屬於「經常如此」,其中以同仁未感受到行銷的重要性最高,缺乏校長的領導與支持最低。
10.大學校院教育行銷困境的因應之道實施程度不高,多屬於「有時
如此」,其中以校長對行銷的領導與熱心的支持最高,委託專業行銷公司辦理行銷工作最低。
11.大學校院成員對於教育行銷概念與方法的瞭解程度不高,屬於「中」等。
12.不同職務的人員對於教育行銷的實施看法大致無顯著差異。
13.不同背景的校院在教育行銷的實施上大致有顯著差異,其中以私立校院、科技大學校院、校齡為10年以下,及新生報到率為81%以上的校院較有在實施行銷、所達到的成效較佳、困境較少、且較有對困境採取因應之道。
