Abstract

Employer-oriented industry-academia collaboration serves as a pivotal pathway for integrating education with industry in applied private universities, yet its educational efficacy remains to be verified. This study constructs a regression model based on student enrollment experiences and academic performance data from applied private universities, analyzing the industry-academia collaboration mechanism through dimensions of core competency enhancement, employment quality, and academic performance. Results indicate that industry-academia collaboration significantly enhances students' core competency enhancements and employment quality. Satisfaction with industry-academia collaboration is a critical factor, positively influencing academic performance. However, the entrance core competency exhibits a significant negative impact, reflecting the value-added effects of industry-academia collaboration. Therefore, enhancing the educational efficacy of applied private universities requires focusing on collaboration quality, refining evaluation systems, and advancing curriculum integration reforms.
