| Research Abstract |
The enlargement of the opportunities in higher education has driven the population of college students toward much more diversified one. In accordance with these phenomena, the concept of strategic management on how to improve a first year experience is getting more importance as an agenda of management in a global context of higher education.,
It is true in Japan that university people have got to understand the importance of the first year programs such as guidance, orientation and freshman seminar. But, they have few experiences to practice first year programs in terms of the concept and method of strategic management which emphasize on the programs as part of four year programs and the improvement of performance standards at the exit of undergraduate education.
In this study, we paid much attention to the two countries of the United States and Australia which have accumulated the studies and practices on the first year experience. And we tried to survey the present trends and its achievements of the first year experience programs in these countries by case study.
As a result of this study, we indicate the following features ;
(1) To develop the first year experience programs including both of in-class and out-class activities,
(2) To enrich staff development programs and faculty development programs for the first year programs,
(3) To prepare systematic information/content on study tips and strategies
(4) To apply a new approach of strategic planning theory to the first year experience programs.
