ABSTRACT

Korea International Cooperation Agency - Yonsei scholarship program (KYSP) was introduced in 2011 with the main objective of creating leaders for community that can bring change in developing countries. This paper is to evaluate KYSP mainly by employing Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method. Relative weights on multiple criteria applied to KYSP reveal both strengths and weaknesses of the program. KYSP is achieving its aim of grooming leaders since a majority of the respondents were satisfied with most of the measured indicators, especially for trainers’ competence and excellent educational environment. Nonetheless, it still needs improvement in terms of course content and program objectives. The most important finding of this study suggests that KYSP should focus on capacity building in the context of developing countries with which the course contents should be congruent. Along with such pedagogical improvement, more detailed concern for pupils in foreign situations would be an important hygiene factor for the further success of KYSP.
