In the final report produced in December, 1997 by the Administrative Reform Council, national universities were not included in the targets of turning into independent administrative corporations. However, another final report, "A New Image of National Univeristy Corporations"issued in March, 2002 by a Study Team concernig the Transformation of National Universities into Independent Administrative Corporations descrived an image of national university corporations. The present study is intended to explain two factors that have been promoting the transformation of national universities into independent administrative Corporations. The two factors are (1) outsoucing of administrative functions and (2) business-academia collaboration. The study also examines some effects of these factors on constructing a system for transforming national universities into independent administrative corporations.
