■Abstract
The Korean government’s financial support programs for universities exhibit a distinctive characteristic that simultaneously pursues contradictory values within a single initiative: ‘competition’ from the performance-based funding system and ‘shared growth’ from the diffusion of leading models invented by beneficiary universities. Existing literature has primarily focused on the direct effects of financial support initiatives, despite the likelihood that the initiatives affect neighboring universities due to this feature. Therefore, this study analyzed the effects of the representative university financial support initiative, ‘Leading University’s Industry-University Cooperation (LINC), ’ from the perspective of spillover effects using spatial models.
