摘要

最近,通过基于学生交换协议的大学合作伙伴关系,出国留学和选修课程得到了促进。本研究考察了国际医学生交换协议,重点关注日本背景下的互惠和分层。以日本文部科学省的调查为基础,对581项与国外医疗机构的学生交流协议进行了实证分析。我们发现,通过相互学费减免的平均互惠率为52.84%:在亚洲与之相当,在欧洲略低(49.61%),在北美较高(58.06%)。欧洲的进出境交换平衡,亚洲的进出境交换较高,北美的日本出出境交换过多。此外,像前帝国大学或医科大学这样的名牌大学,每所大学的协议数量是其他大学的两倍多。最后,可以观察到,国际医科大学的伙伴关系是分层的,互惠与免除学费和在伙伴机构交换学生的人数交织在一起。由于研究结果突出了日本医学领域的国际教育伙伴关系与所有学术领域的伙伴关系相比具有鲜明的特点,因此有必要按领域分别调查和发展国际伙伴关系。

Japanese Universities’ International Medical Partnerships: Reciprocity and Stratification
Recently, study abroad and elective programs have been facilitated via university partnerships based on student-exchange agreements. This study examined international medical student exchange agreements, focusing on reciprocity and stratification in the Japanese context. An empirical analysis was conducted using 581 agreements involving student exchanges with medical institutions in foreign countries based on a survey conducted by the Japanese Ministry of Education. We found that the average reciprocity rate via mutual tuition waivers was 52.84%: equivalent in Asia, slightly lower in Europe (49.61%), and higher in North America (58.06%). Europe has a balanced inbound and outbound exchange, Asia has a higher inbound exchange, and North America has an excess of outbound exchange from Japan. Moreover, selective institutions, such as former imperial or medical universities, have more than twice the number of agreements per university compared to others. In conclusion, it can be observed that international medical university partnerships are stratified, and reciprocity is intertwined with tuition waivers and the number of exchange students in the partnering institutions. As the results highlight the distinct characteristics of international education partnerships in Japan’s medical field compared to partnerships in all academic fields, it is necessary to investigate and develop international partnerships separately by field.
