SONSIK 16th Executive Committee SONSIK 16th Advisory Board Message From The President Of SONSIK 16th EC Respected all, Namaste!! I want to express my sincere gratitude towards all of you who have trusted me and my abilities to be a president of Society of Nepalese Students in Korea (SONSIK) – an umbrella organization established with the foremost aim of conducting activities that are directly or indirectly associated with the benefit and welfare of students living all over Korea. I am deeply humbled to welcome you all and an indeed a privilege to be serving as a president of SONSIK. This year marks the time in which we continue the journey for a much more fulfilling student experience with great fervor and alacrity. I strongly believe in a team work. I started learning how important a single individual could be to build a strong team since from the day I came to knew how the small drop of water collects and converts into a huge ocean via small rivers and streams. I am nothing as a single individual but I am SONSIK with the combination of you people. We will continue to seek out your ideas, suggestions, and recommendations, as my team is always here to listen and extend a helping hand. Together we can and we should. Another important thing is about knowledge. I believe and feel that knowledge is more about what we face than what we read. Everything that I have faced in these 4 years during my stay in Korea has made me more stronger about dealing with the situation. I am very much confident that the hard working and experienced team of SONSIK is as strong as a ocean and we can do much more with the support and enthusiasm of all of you. Let’s always remember, our time, our unity, our experience, our knowledge and take SONSIK on new height.

    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School THE EXPANSION OF SCIENCE PRODUCTION AT KOREAN UNIVERSITIES, 1970–2017 A Dissertation in Educational Theory and Policy by Hyerim Kim © 2019 Hyerim Kim Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2019 The dissertation of Hyerim Kim was reviewed and approved* by the following: David P. Baker Professor of Education and Sociology Dissertation Advisor Chair of Committee Soo-yong Byun Associate Professor of Education Maryellen Schaub Associate Professor of Education Education and Public Policy Liying Luo Assistant Professor of Sociology and Demography Katerina Bodovski Associate Professor of Education Chair of Graduate Program, Educational Theory and Policy *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School. ii ABSTRACT Since 1970, when Korean researchers published the first journal article from their country to be cataloged in the Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE), science production has exponentially expanded among Korean universities. This rapid growth was not driven by a few specific institutions. Rather, it was possible because virtually all universities with STEM programs, regardless of their institutional mission, participated in scholarly publishing. Meanwhile, the Korean government implemented a special research funding initiative, Brain Korea 21, in 1999 to stimulate science production among universities. Using multilevel linear regression models, this dissertation examines the effect of the BK 21 program; it finds that BK 21 had a positive effect on publications, but that its effect turned insignificant when more comparable groups of universities were examined. This research also demonstrates that the scientific collaboration network in Korea has moved from one strongly dominated by a few specific actors to one with more actors participating more equally and significantly.
